I think in New York, you can substitute teach in a public school for up to 40 days without certification.

Last poster is correct. You can start as a substitute w/o certification. You have to go to the office, for me is was downtown brooklyn to get fingerprinted and fill out paperwork. Check the Dept. of Ed's website.

I know in my district you can sub without certification as long as you have your bachelor's degree. Most of our subs are working on their masters while subbing.

FM me if you want more info. My district is on the Nassau/Suffolk border.
