Teacher Preparation (University Partnerships)
The Office of Human Resources works with local universities to provide financial incentives and additional support at the graduate level for individuals — primarily career changers — to attain teacher certification. Partnership programs focus on expanding the candidate pool with respect to applicants representing diverse backgrounds and critical needs fields. Programs involve extensive MCPS field experiences, supplemental training, and supervisory support by universities and MCPS coaches.
