Are you a Licensed Teacher from Out-of-State?​​

Maryland finds more than 50 percent of its teachers from out-of-state, and there are still many areas of teacher shortages to fill. Maryland welcomes hard-working and passionate educators from all over the country - come and make a difference in one of America's most beautiful and diverse states!


If you have a valid license or completed an educator preparation program in another state or country, you have a direct route to Maryland licensure. Check out the MSDE Pathways to Licensure webpage​ for details.​
