All Illinois Educator Certificates have transitioned from a certificate system to a licensure system, moving from 60 types of educator certificates and endorsements to just three licenses:
- Professional Educator License (PEL)
- Educator License with Stipulations (ELS)
- Substitute License
You can access your license data through the new ELIS - Educator Licensure Information System. You will need to login to your ELIS account at http://isbe.net/ELIS/default.htm.
If you have questions or need assistance regarding your Educator License credentials, applications, renewal, registration, endorsements and/or approvals, please contact West 40 at 708-449-4284.
