    • Passport/Passport Card (This 1 document counts as both forms of legal identification)

  3. Application Fee - $10.00 (Cash or Check payable to PESG)

    PESG charges a $10.00, one-time application fee to cover orientation materials, meetings, mailings, and document imaging for each district as well as county-wide payroll setup. Except for a few West Michigan counties, there are no additional enrollment fees as you reactivate with PESG on an annual basis or add additional counties or districts in the future.

  4. Education Documents (Teachers Only)

    You must bring your original teaching certificate, 90 day letter, or your official 90+ credit hour transcript (from an accredited 4-year college or university) to the applicant meeting. Please note: PESG must have the official transcript as of 2/1/09. We can no longer accept unofficial transcripts.

    • Official 90+ credit hour transcripts from an accredited 4 year degree college or university
    • Provisional Teaching Certificate
    • Permanent Teaching Certificate
    • Professional Teaching Certificate
    • Expired Teaching Certificate
    • Out of State Teaching Certificate with original Official 90+ credit hour transcripts

  5. Fingerprinting

    The State of Michigan requires all educational employees to be fingerprinted via an electronic process called Livescan fingerprinting, prior to the start of your employment.

    If you have been fingerprinted under the Michigan School Employment reason code and you have worked in a K-12 school within the current or previous school year, those results may be used for your employment as a substitute. Please fill out "Form 12: Fingerprint Release Form," found in the enrollment packet, and bring it to the enrollment meeting.

    If you have not been fingerprinted under the new State of Michigan Child Safety Legislation, or you have not worked for a Michigan K-12 school within the current or previous school year then you MUST be printed BEFORE beginning employment as a substitute. Complete "Form 11: Livescan Fingerprint Request Form," the Livescan fingerprint process, and keep a copy of your receipt for your records.

    Attention Student Teachers!

    If you have already been fingerprinted for student teaching, and your fingerprints are currently being held at your college or university, it is likely they were taken under the National Child Protection Act (NCPA). Fingerprints taken under this act are not sufficient for substitute teaching. Please contact your college or university to verify the reason code under which your fingerprints were taken. If they are NCPA, you must be re-fingerprinted using the 'SE' (School Employment) Code and should refer to the information provided below.
