Extractions: The College of Education at the University of Northern Iowa (UNI) in Cedar Falls has been actively involved with the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards (NBPTS) since 1992. Between 1992 and 1996, the NBPTS implemented field tests of their operating system for the initial standards and certification process that had been developed. In 1998, the Iowa Office for Educator Development was created and has progressed to become an exemplary support center for teachers pursuing National Board Certification with over 63 percent of candidates achieving certification each year upon their first attempt. UNI was initially awarded a two-year grant by the NBPTS to become one of 27 sites in a field test network created to develop a national awareness of the work of the NBPTS and to create a pool of teacher candidates from Iowa who would field test the standards for Early Adolescence/English Language Arts and for Early Adolescence/Generalist. In the summer 1994, UNI agreed to continue to serve the NBPTS as Field Test Site to support the Far West Laboratory in the field testing of the assessment package for the Early Adolescence/Young Adult Art standards.

Extractions: Wednesday January 30, 2001 Vilsack Announces Success in Teacher Incentive Initiative: Loan Program Keeps More Teachers in Iowa Classrooms DES MOINES - The number of new teachers certified to teach in high-need subject areas in Iowas K-12 schools has doubled each year since a forgivable loan program began three years ago. Officials who administer Iowas Teacher Shortage Forgivable Loan program predict another doubling of newly certified teachers for shortage areas, based on reports showing as many as 150 participating college students scheduled for graduation in the spring and summer of 2002. The figures, released today by Governor Tom Vilsack and Lt. Governor Sally Pederson, show that school districts are getting some relief in matching qualified teachers with hard-to-fill vacancies in subject areas that include reading, math, language arts, special education, industrial technology, and others. The relief corresponds with the availability of additional financial incentives used to encourage Iowa college students to pursue teaching careers and to specifically earn certification to teach in shortage areas. In total, 110 new teachers who enrolled in the states loan forgiveness program were hired in the last three years to fill vacancies in 80 school districts throughout the state. Fifty-four teachers were hired to fill shortage positions in the current 2001-2002 academic year, including a mid-year graduate hired in December to fill an industrial technology vacancy in a Des Moines high school.

Extractions: International Employment for Teachers Alternative Certification Many states have developed or are initiating programs that provide alternative routes to teacher certification, particularly for mid-career professionals. The goal of such programs is to draw a diversity of individuals with in-depth subject matter backgrounds into teaching careers. Requirements for an alternative teaching license vary by state. For an overseas position, it does not matter what state your license is from. Generally, applicants must hold a bachelors degree in the subject to be taught, achieve a passing score on state-required examinations, complete an intensive teacher preparation program, and possibly fulfill a supervised teaching internship. Specific information on which school systems are offering internships can be requested from the schools. After satisfactory completion of these requirements, the applicant will be issued a teaching credential.
