In August I asked the following question to the members of the listserv: Here at George Mason University we have a program called FAST TRAIN that helps international teachers get PK-8 certification (with a Masters option after that). However, we also get inquiries from teachers who would like to work on their secondary certification. Does anyone have a list of programs where international teachers might get their secondary certification? We would like to pass this information on when we get these types of phone calls and e-mails.

View Print Friendly Version Close Window David Blount , Editor Supply and Demand: Virginia Teachers and Administrators Increasing student enrollments, the attraction of potential teachers to other professions and a predicted flood of coming teacher retirements have all contributed to widespread concerns about our public schools having an adequate number of teachers. As noted in the Supply and Demand issue briefing, the issues surrounding the pool of available teachers are varied and complex, and recently, have received increased attention from state policymakers. In the mid-1990s, the General Assembly directed the Board of Education and State Council of Higher Education to study ways to relieve teacher shortages and to encourage students to pursue teaching careers, and to examine strengthening teacher education and supporting experienced teachers as mentors for beginning teachers. In 1996, the General Assembly approved HB 327, which directed local school boards to adopt policies and practices to promote the employment and retention of the highest quality instructional personnel. The bill had failed on two previous attempts. Also in 1996

Use your browser's back button to return to Senator Rockefeller's Webpage. FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE April 10, 2003 ROCKEFELLER LEGISLATION PROMOTES TEACHER CERTIFICATION AND COMMITMENT TO RURAL AND LOW-INCOME SCHOOLS WASHINGTON, D.C.– Focusing on the need to strengthen our education system, Senator Jay Rockefeller (D-WV) introduced legislation today to give financial incentives to recruit and retain qualified teachers. The Incentives to Educate American Children Act of 2003 (I TEACH) recognizes teachers for their commitment to education by offering a $1,000 tax credit for teachers who work in rural or low-income schools, and a $1,000 tax credit for those earning a National Board for Professional Teaching Standards certification. "Our teachers are unsung heroes. They work tirelessly to prepare our kids to go out into the world and too often do not receive the compensation and rewards they deserve," Rockefeller said. "In order for our children, and our nation to excel in the future, it’s critical that we provide financial incentives to keep qualified teachers in our classrooms." Throughout America and West Virginia, rural and low-income schools are finding themselves in a critical situation. West Virginia has rural schools scattered throughout 36 of its 55 counties, and of the 798 schools in the state, approximately 100 are low-income. "These institutions are having difficulty finding and keeping qualified teachers, and the I TEACH Act will tremendously help them in their efforts," the senator added.

A r c h i v e d I n f o r m a t i o n Improving America's Schools: Newsletter on Issues in School Reform - May 1996 Reforms in Preservice Preparation Programs and Teacher Certification Standards Just as states, districts, and educational associations are beginning to rethink professional development strategies to support school improvement, they are also trying to reform preservice preparation programs and teacher certification standards. They have been exploring better ways to prepare new teachers, certify experienced teachers, and provide ongoing professional development to practicing educators. Many organizations-including schools, universities, and national educator groups-have created professional development schools that fit the continuing needs of teachers, from their preservice period to after many years of practice. In addition, educators, professional organizations, private foundations, and others have established a National Board for Professional Teaching Standards that can certify and recognize exceptional, experienced teachers. Professional Development Schools The professional development school framework encourages simultaneous restructuring of K-12 schools and colleges of education. Professional development schools provide clinical settings that prepare novice teachers to succeed in real schools and communities. Like medical students who serve an internship in hospitals, novice teachers learn to apply their coursework to the everyday challenges of actual teaching. The schools also provide ongoing professional development for experienced teachers and university faculty.
