Interns who start on an intern certificate may choose to switch districts mid year.  In this event, the advisor should first clarify with the intern if they are switching districts or simply campuses within their district.   


Campus Switch (Remaining within the same district): This process does NOT require a resignation

Advisor should alert Certification Support on a campus switch as we monitor these to ensure the intern remains in compliance with TEA and with updated employment information.  

Certification support will: 

  1. Email the intern and district a manual SOE for the switch providing a disclaimer to SOE eligibility (when applicable) See Manual SOEs
  2. Provide both the intern and district a deadline for the new SOE to be provided.  

Intern should: 

  1.  Submit a new Job form through their intern portal under Menu>Employment 


Advisor should:

  1.  Send an email to certification support advising them of the intern's campus switch and request a manual SOE. Certification support will then review the account on a case by case basis to determine if a manual SOE needs to be created.  and follow up with intern and district.  
  2. Advise the intern to submit a new I've got a job form through their intern portal  under Menu> Employment 


District Switch (Requires a resignation) (See Resignations) 

Certification Support will: 

  1. Review the request on a case by case basis to ensure the intern is provided with a manual SOE and remains in compliance with TEA deactivation guidelines.  

Intern should: 

  1. Submit a new "I've got a job form" in their portal under Menu> Employment 

Advisor should: 

  1. Advise intern to notify us upon resigning from their position and then the advisor should follow steps outlined in Resignations article.  
  2. Advise the intern to submit a new "I've got a job form" in their intern portal under Menu> Employment 


Please note: This includes district and campus switches over the summer and between school years.  We need to verify the new position/teaching assignment any time an intern changes employment.  



If the advisor has an escalation regarding change of employment and an SOE please send that account with supporting information to certification support for review on a case by case basis.
