Abstract: A growing number of Wisconsin teachers hold emergency licenses, reflecting staffing needs and a greater reliance on non-traditional routes into the classroom. This trend is seen across districts but is more prevalent in small or urban districts, certain subject areas, and cases of individuals with less experience. This brief analyzes and compares the Department of Public Instruction's (DPI's) 2024 emergency license list to the agency's Public All Staff Report to chart the growth in emergency licenses. The recent growth suggests that districts increasingly regard it as a necessary rather than optional tool. Policymakers may wish to evaluate which strategies (traditional and alternative) are most effectively recruiting and also retaining educators, and boost those pathways yielding more and higher quality applicants.
