Published certification fee
Requirement
The Idaho page lists a nonrefundable $75 certification application fee, separate from the Background Investigation Check processing fee; confirm both amounts when filing.
What the published fee applies to
Idaho accepts a current valid out-of-state certificate based on a fully completed approved program, or a recent institutional recommendation from a CAEP- or AAQEP-accredited program.
What can change this answer
A current valid certificate must trace to a full state-approved program in a NASDTEC jurisdiction; without that credential, only a CAEP or AAQEP institutional recommendation from a program completed within the last two calendar years uses this packet, with content-assessment evidence added.
Documents you may need
Idaho requires the application, current certificate or qualifying recommendation, official transcripts verifying at least a bachelor's degree and endorsement areas, and a Background Investigation Check packet.
