From now on, if the candidates pass the Teacher Eligibility Test (TET), the certificate will be valid for the rest of their lives, Hon’ble Union Education Minister Shri Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank said last Thursday.

Union Education Minister Ramesh ji announced that the government has decided to extend the validity of TET pass certificates from seven years to life. Those who have passed TET since 2011 will get this facility. All States and Union Territories have been directed to implement this system. Those whose TET certificate is more than seven years old will have to give a new TET certificate.

This instruction of the Center is generally welcomed by the candidates who have passed the TET.
