Lead Teacher Equivalency Form for Approved High School Coursework (DCDEE.0162)
Purpose: The North Carolina Lead Teacher Equivalency for Approved High School Coursework is authorized by the current

North Carolina
and the NC Department of Public Instruction to improve the quality of child care through personnel preparation. The

You may also use this form for any future changes in the applicant’s personal information (name, address, phone number and/or
email), facility information, education status or additional requests to qualify for child care position(s) listed on this form.
Or you may use the NC DCDEE Education and Equivalency Form for Child Care Providers (DCDEE.0169) if you are
requesting qualification for Lead Teacher, Teacher, FCCH Provider, Group Leader and/or Program Coordinator. If the change of
child care position is for an Administrator, then you must submit an original NC DCDEE Child Care Administrators
Education and Equivalency Form (DCDEE.0173) to be evaluated for qualification as an Administrator.
Note: This qualification is for current education requirements only. It does not indicate compliance with age, pre-
service, criminal record, medical or in-service training requirements.
Please read these instructions carefully. Retain a copy of this form and any attached documentation for your records.
General Instructions: Print clearly in ink or type your answers. If a question does not apply to you, write N/A (''Not Applicable'') in
