semester hours or nine term hours of credit will be able to complete it in a
six-weeks session without violating the rule limiting student weekly load to
eighteen hours per week as a maximum.
7. A given certificate may be extended from year to year.
8. College work when used for extension of a certificate may also be
used later for any general or special certificate provided for in the general

in a standard college or university at least eighteen Semester hours every
three years through any plan or method acceptable to the college or university.""Teachers employed in state aid schools shall be required to have a minimum
of two years of college training or the equivalent thereof and shall be
