HB1112 amends the Illinois School Code to establish a METT Educator District License for individuals with at least 10,000 working hours in manufacturing, engineering, technology, or trades. This license is valid for five years and only for teaching courses related to the licensee's work experience. The bill also mandates the State Board of Education to expand a database identifying regions facing METT labor shortages and requires school districts in these regions to participate in a College and Career Pathway Endorsement program, offering METT endorsements.
