Extractions: OMAHA Members of a state task force looking at Nebraska's teacher shortage suggest that requirements for experienced out-of-state teachers should be loosened. People with teaching certificates from other states wanting to teach in Nebraska currently must pass a test in reading, writing and math, and finish courses in special and multicultural education. Some task force members told the state Board of Education during a meeting Wednesday night that the coursework and testing requirements should be eliminated if a teacher has at least three years of classroom experience. In addition to the three years of experience, an educator would need to have graduated from a teachers college and received a teaching certificate from another state. In short, the changes would reduce the amount of time it takes teachers from other states to get a Nebraska certificate, a move that could help combat the state's teacher shortage.
