| or evaluation
of credentials shall be accompanied by an |
23 |

| Education, which is not
refundable, except that no application |
25 |
| or evaluation fee shall be required
for a Master Certificate |

| issued pursuant to subsection (d) of Section 21-2 of
this Code. |
27 |
| The proceeds of each $30 fee shall be paid into the Teacher

| this Code;
and the moneys in that Fund shall be appropriated |
30 |
| and used to provide the
technology and other resources |

| necessary for the timely and efficient
processing of |
32 |
| certification requests.
