National Council for Teacher Education, NCTE has extended TET certificate validity for a lifetime now.The decision to extend the validity was taken during the 50th Meeting of the NCTE's General Body that was held on September 29. Among several issues discussed by the Commission in the meeting, this was one of the major topics. With this move, candidates who have qualified the TET examination can apply for teacher recruitment all through their lifetime. Earlier the validity for these certificates was till 7 years from the date of issue.
Council considered the agenda item and approved the validity of the TET certificate changing it from 7 years to the Lifetime. This provision would have a prospective effect and for those who have already passed out (already having TET certificate), NCTE would take legal action and will act accordingly.
The dates from when this extension would be applicable have not been announced yet. As per reports, the respective states and boards will notify the implementation of such a decision after the NCTE officially notifies the same.
