The California Center on Teaching Careers is tasked with helping to eliminate the teacher shortage in California. To that end, we have created the Credential Tracker App. Our initial effort is to help those teacher candidates that are currently on a provisional intern permit to teach.

The purpose of the app is to help teacher candidates keep track of their progress in completing the steps necessary to get a full teaching credential. In addition, the app will allow them to share progress with their teacher prep program, the school district they are employed at, the principal they work under, and any other people they need to. This will allow all of these parties to help guide the teacher candidate if they are falling behind schedule in completing their goal of becoming a fully credentialed California teacher.
