School Administrators

The HTSB does not issue Administrator Licenses or Certifications. School administrators may renew their existing HTSB license or apply for the appropriate HTSB license if eligible. Administrator certification is managed by the Hawaiʻi Department of Education (HIDOE). For more information, contact the Office of Talent Management at (808) 441-8444 or [email protected], and visit HIDOE Licensure & Certification to review administrator requirements, as well as HIDOE employment opportunities requiring licensure and certification.
 

Renewing Your HTSB License

Administrators are highly encouraged to maintain their HTSB teaching license to ensure they meet professional teaching standards and remain eligible for teaching and leadership roles within Hawaiʻi’s education system. For licenses that may be expiring soon, log into your HTSB account to begin renewing your valid, non-expired license. The online portal will guide you through the application process and required documentation. To check on the status of your application, go to My Profile Home in your HTSB account and view My HTSB Transaction history. Renewing early helps ensure timely processing and maintains your licensure eligibility.
 

Expired HTSB License

For all other administrators with an expired license, log in to your HTSB profile. If you are new to HTSB, create an HTSB profile. After logging in, click on your name, then select 'My Profile'. From here, you will select the appropriate action, which can include starting a new application, converting a license or permit, or adding a teaching field. Complete all steps of your selected application, saving your progress after each step. When you’re finished with your application, click SUBMIT.
 

Locked Out of HTSB Account

If you have forgotten your login credentials or are locked out of your HTSB account, please email [email protected] for assistance. DO NOT create a new account, as the information and documents entered on your original account will not be transferred to your new account. If you submitted the wrong application or selected the incorrect verification option, we will need your permission to cancel your application, allowing you to reapply correctly.
