State Program Models

California has a two-tiered credentialing system for teachers. Preliminary programs prepare candidates to obtain an initial teaching credential through successful completion of required coursework, fieldwork, and a performance demonstration of their knowledge, skills, and abilities. The second tier of preparation is a two-year job-embedded individualized induction program that is focused on extensive support and mentoring to new teachers in their first and second year of teaching.

In 2020 the Georgia Department of Education, Division of Special Education was awarded the Teacher/Provider Retention Grant from the United States Department of Education, Office of Special Education Programs. This grant led to the establishment of the Teacher/Provider Retention Program (TPRP), which is designed to support GaDOE in its efforts to improve the retention of new special education teachers through the development and implementation of high-quality mentoring and induction programs.
