TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is seeking clarification on the correct visa type needed for teaching at a university in Thailand. They are confused about the distinction between the 'Non-Immigrant Visa B for Teaching' and the general 'Non-Immigrant Visa B for Work.' While they previously used the same visa process as for government schools, they are unsure which visa to apply for if they return to work at a university.
Check with your university which is hiring you. Non B Teaching is correct. But requirements for license from Teachers Board not applicable to Uni Profs as I understand it.
