Wisconsin Substitute Teacher Requirements

To substitute teach in Fond du Lac, you must meet these Wisconsin state requirements:

Education Requirements

Wisconsin does not require a statewide license for short-term substitute teaching assignments of 20 or fewer consecutive days in the same assignment. For these short-term positions, the education requirements are set by individual school districts. However, for longer-term substitute assignments exceeding 20 days, a bachelor's degree and a DPI-issued substitute license are required.

Background Check

All substitute teachers in Wisconsin must undergo a criminal background check as required by state law. The background check includes a review of criminal records through the Wisconsin Department of Justice (DOJ). Districts are responsible for conducting these checks and must verify clearance before allowing any substitute to work with students.

Age Requirements

Substitute teachers in Wisconsin must be at least 18 years of age. For those seeking a DPI substitute license for longer-term assignments, the minimum age is also 18, with verification required through valid government-issued identification.

Application Process

For short-term substitute positions, candidates apply directly to individual school districts in Wisconsin. For longer-term positions requiring a DPI substitute license, candidates must apply through the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction (DPI) online licensing system. After obtaining the DPI license, candidates then apply to districts for placement opportunities.
