Does TEFL Certification Expire?

No, an accredited TEFL certificate does not expire and never needs to be renewed. After completing your TEFL certification course and obtaining your TEFL certificate you can start looking for work right away, and you never have to worry about renewing your certificate in the future.  

Completing your TEFL certification, either in person classes or online, should be the first thing on your list before you teach English abroad, but once it's done, it's done.   You have the freedom and flexibility to put it to use immediately teaching English abroad or to simply check it off on your to-do list as the first step towards your adventure.

How long does TEFL certification last?

Like a college degree, your TEFL certification is a qualification you will possess for the rest of your life.   You never have to take additional training or coursework to renew it and it does not have an expiration date.

You can teach English in Mediterranean Europe in your twenties and then retire as an English teacher in a coastal city in Southeast Asia in your fifties.   It is your golden ticket to use for the rest of your life whenever you wish to teach English abroad.

Does the job search guidance expire?
