On receiving it, the Director‑General must endorse the certificate with the date of the appointment and return it to the teacher at the teacher’s last known address. A duplicate of the certificate bearing all endorsements made upon the original must then be sent to the supervisor and must remain in the supervisor’s possession throughout the period of the teacher’s employment.
