Teacher credentialing: world languages: subject matter examinations: language proficiency assessments.

Summary

The bill permits prospective world‑language teachers to satisfy the subject‑matter or language‑proficiency exam requirement by completing a comparable post‑secondary language proficiency assessment, such as those administered by ACTFL, when California does not provide its own exam. It applies to candidates seeking single‑subject teaching credentials or authorizations to serve English‑learner students. This creates a flexible pathway for credentialing in languages not covered by state‑run tests.
