Can anyone fill me in with information about GPKI? I am changing schools next week (my current one lost its budget,) and the new school has asked me to show up with my GPKI certification downloaded onto a USB drive. I had never heard of it before, but they said my current co-teacher would have it for me. Well, my co-teacher just started in March and nonchalantly informed me that her predecessor didn't register me with GPKI. She (my new co-teacher) didn't correct this oversight because by the time she arrived, we already knew I was only staying a few more months. However, another teacher I know said she heard that GPKI is a requirement of all GEPIK teachers. Now I'm worried that this might cause problems with my new contract. Any words of wisdom?

Thanks!

At the above site, it looks like this is something the school needs to do. Maybe they are mixing this up with the school license number. This is the only thing I really needed to transfer to a new school. The new school has to provide some other paperwork, but I never worried about it. Just get the form which has license information from the old school.
