Steps to Successfully Update Your Certified Application
Use the information below to guide your certified application update and ensure you're ready for consideration.
Application Update Checklist
Start by reviewing the Certified Application Update Checklist to help you complete each part of the process with confidence.
Job Pool Selection
Boise School District uses a content-area, pool-based hiring system for certified positions.
To be considered for openings, you must select the appropriate job pool(s) in your application that align with your current endorsement(s).
Only select the pools you’re qualified for and truly interested in.
Important: You cannot apply directly to specific postings. Please do not contact principals or administrators regarding openings. Once your application is complete and screened, you’ll automatically be considered for vacancies that match your qualifications—even if the posting says "In-District Only."
Certification Details
Check the Certification/Licensure section of your application to ensure your credential expiration date is accurate.
Note: If you're a student teacher or working toward certification (such as ABCTE), select your program in place of an expiration date.
Finalize and Submit
Review every section of your application for accuracy and make any needed updates, including contact information, work history, credentials, background check, and references.
We recommend using a personal email address instead of a college email to ensure continued access.
Once complete, be sure to submit your application.
Review or Update Documents
Ensure that any documents associated with your application, such as certifications or your resume, are up to date.
To review or upload documents:
Log in to your Application WorkSpace
Click “Manage Documents” in the right-hand column
Review your existing documents and upload updates if needed
