The Interim Type B license is issued at the request of the superintendent/director of schools of a Tennessee school district to an individual who is employed while still completing the required Praxis Series Exams. If the school system has a question regarding recommendation, contact the Office of Teacher Licensing. 

The Interim License Type B may be renewed for one additional school year if necessary. To renew this license, the superintendent/director of schools must sign an application for renewal of the Interim Type B license stating his/her intent to re-employ the applicant for an additional school year and submit it to the Tennessee Office of Teacher Licensing.
