One-Year Extension
If a Level 1 educator fails to complete all of the EYE requirements within the three-year period because of
unusual or extenuating emergency circumstances, the LEA may request a one-time, one-year extension
of the level 1 license to provide additional time for the educator to complete the upgrade requirements.
You will find the Level 1 extension form at the following website:
http://schools.utah.gov/CURR/educatoreffectiveness/EYE/Teachers.aspx. Requests for a Level 1
extension may be submitted beginning in March of the expiration year, but prior to the expiration of your
license on June 30.
Upgrade vs Renewal
The difference between upgrade and renewal is that UPGRADE is to go from Level 1 to Level 2 licensure
by completing the EYE upgrade requirements. Whereas RENEWAL is to renew the same level of
licensure by earning a set amount of points over a license cycle. These are two different processes with
the same end goal keeping a Utah Educator License current. You are completing the EYE program in
place of earning points during your first three years of service in Utah. As a Level 1 licensed educator with
three years of licensed teaching experience, you must upgrade to the Level 2 license because your level
1 license is nonrenewable.
Expired Level 1 Licenses
If your license is due to expire on June 30, of the current year, it is your responsibility to work with your
LEA to obtain a Level 2 upgrade or a one-year extension. If the license expires, your employment may
be in jeopardy. If your license has expired, you should consult immediately with your LEA to develop a
plan to upgrade the license as soon as possible. The following forms and fee are required to upgrade an
expired Level 1 license:
Have a signed upgrade approval from your employing LEA; see the upgrade form at
http://schools.utah.gov/CURR/educatoreffectiveness/EYE/Teachers.aspx.
Complete a Level 1 renewal form to verify 100 re-licensure points; see the renewal form at
http://www.schools.utah.gov/cert/License-Renewals/Renewal-Information/Level-1/Level1RenewalForm.aspx.
Submit all documentation and upgrade fee to USOE at the address on the upgrade form.
