Earn the professional learning hours you need to renew your Kentucky teaching certificate, on your own schedule. iTeachAI Academy offers EPSB-aligned professional development for K-12 educators, anchored to Kentucky frameworks, each course three clock hours, with a Certificate of Completion that documents toward your renewal.

Kentucky renews the Professional Certificate for Teaching every five years through either three years of classroom teaching or six semester hours of additional graduate credit, with districts approving outside professional development for in-service requirements. iTeachAI Academy was founded by Dr. Janette Camacho, a 30-year K-12 educator, and every Kentucky course is anchored to specific Kentucky Department of Education and EPSB frameworks, not generic national content. Courses are self-paced, work on any device, and are designed to fit the Kentucky in-service and professional learning pathways.

Every iTeachAI Academy course provides three IACET-aligned clock hours and a verifiable Certificate of Completion you can document toward your professional learning and district in-service requirements. Confirm with your district and the EPSB how external professional development is recorded for your renewal pathway.

How Kentucky Districts Approve iTeachAI for In-Service Hours

Kentucky approves educator professional development at multiple levels. The Kentucky Department of Education reviews Effective Instructional Leadership Act (EILA) provider proposals for instructional leaders, while Kentucky school districts independently approve professional development for their educators under district in-service policies and EPSB rules. iTeachAI has administrator courses in KDE EILA review and is not a fully approved state provider, so we frame our courses as EILA-aligned and district-acceptable. The district route is simple:

1. A district designee reviews one or more courses through a no-cost reviewer account.
2. The district documents approved courses on its in-service form.
3. Teachers complete courses, receive a Certificate of Completion, and submit it for renewal and in-service credit.
