Virginia Goals

CEEDAR VA is focused on:

  • supporting pre- and in-service educators through facilitated support with EPP faculty to provide knowledge and awareness trainings, course and program review, and revisions of courses and programs to include HLPs and alignment with clinical practice 
  • supporting in-service educators through mentoring and induction and strengthening partnerships with Virginia’s regional Training and Technical Assistant Centers (TTACs)
  • partnering with a Local Education Agency (LEA) to use data to identify a strategy to implement to support the teacher pipeline.
