A lifetime license may be invalidated if the educator is not actively employed in education for five or more consecutive years (2017 Act 59/206). Holders of expired Wisconsin licenses may request reissuance of a three-year provisional license (application 3020) and continue working toward lifetime licensure.Verify with board
