yes. and no.

not legally required by national law.
not required by all provinces
even if required, can be waived.

but why not "even with a degree"? many degrees are simply certificates
stating you sat in a classroom and paid tuition. you could argue that
experience trumps book learning.

It depends what city you want to work in. Suzhou demands 2 years experience in order to get your RP.

I just ran into this in Sichuan province. The uni I'm transferring to brought it up since I only had this current year listed on my resume. Fortunately I had some experience back in college that got me the green light.

Do you have experience giving a seminar of some sort or a lecture, or reading a paper? That counts.

If you're an education major, you have half the game won: organization.
