Once a participating teacher completes Year 2 or an Early Completion Option program, they will participate in the following:
The primary responsibility of collecting evidence of professional growth and development lies with the inductee with the guidance and assistance of the mentor teacher.
The Teacher Induction Faculty along with the mentor teacher reviews inductee competency benchmarks and provides feedback towards program completion. This occurs during each semester of the program.
All Year 2 and Early Completion Option teachers will participate in a portfolio showcase, sharing evidence of professional growth with peers and faculty. The Request for a Clear Credential form will be submitted to the Teacher Induction Program at this time.
At the completion of all Induction requirements, the Request for a Clear Credential form is signed and forwarded to the Credentials Analyst in Human Resources.
A Verification of Completion Form (41-Induction) is completed and the Credentials Analyst meets with the participating teacher to complete the online application to submit to the Commission on Teacher Credentialing.
The Commission on Teacher Credentialing contacts the participating teacher with verification and payment information.
