NV School Law, NV Constitution & US Constitution Teacher Licensure Examinations

 

The Nevada School Law Project at the University of Nevada-Reno provides one avenue for teachers to remove provisions from their licenses. We offer general examinations four times a year as well as special administration sessions for a total of 28 testing opportunities provided each year.

 

The Nevada School Law Project has moved towards a more streamlined online registration process for general exams. Please continue checking our website for the exam date in which you are interested. We do require online registration and payment for all our General Exams (not for Special Administrations). This process has cut the check-in time to a minimum when you show up to take your exams. The format of the exams, the testing locations & times will all remain the same.

 

If you have a documented disability for which you need accommodations, or for additional information, please contact us: Katrina Hayes at 775-682-9084 or nvlaw@unr.edu.

 

Our special administrations are provided twice a month, every month, and we offer all three examinations at every testing session. Please scroll down to the special administration section for more information.
