(1) The renewal conditions can be met by choosing one of two methods (details in the implementation plan):

1. If invited to serve as a teaching mentor during the certificate's validity period and complete one of the two related teaching mentorship tasks, you can participate in the renewal workshop and have your certificate reissued.

2. If you have not completed any teaching mentorship tasks during the certificate's validity period, you can be recommended by your school to participate in the renewal workshop and complete four professional practice tasks. After review and approval, your certificate will be reissued.
