Teacher's Aid Certification Question

To get certified as a Teachers Aide (Level 1), do you need a diploma?

Does the school system provide this certification and would they check or take your word for it?

ETA:
I know someone who just got this certification and never graduated HS. I thought this was odd for a school system position.

this is what TEACH NY says:

Education - High School Diploma or GED
New York State Teacher Certification Exam - ATAS
Workshop - Child Abuse Identification
Workshop - School Violence Intervention and Prevention
Fingerprint Clearance




do they have their GED?

Interesting. No they don't but they worked for the school in another area and began cert. classes to be an aide. I would have thought the cert class would have screened the students. Maybe if they get hired as an aide then they would ask for it..maybe.

Its kind of crazy when I was 18 I had to show my diploma to Macy's to get a job you would think a school system would do the same.
