Important information for licensed employees
Submitting Your License to DPS
You must provide DPS with a copy each time you renew your license. Your current license type must match your current work assignment. (A Principal License does not license you to teach.) CDE does not send renewed licenses to any school district. It is the licensed individual's responsibility to submit their current license to their employer. DPS accepts current licenses three ways:
- Hand Deliver it to the Welcome Center in the Ad. Building at 900 Grant St.
- Fax it to 720-423-3569; Attn: Teacher Licensing - URGENT!
- Send it via First Class Mail to:
