CCNetwork Registered Teacher Apprenticeship Program (R-TAP) Professional Learning Series: Getting Started

The CCNetwork Registered Teacher Apprenticeship Program (R-TAP) Professional Learning Series will bring together teams of education and labor leaders considering or implementing R-TAPs as a long-term strategy for strengthening and diversifying the teacher workforce. We are joined by Tennessee’s first-in-the-nation registered apprenticeship program leaders, Jobs for the Future, and others who will provide critical information and resources needed for planning and implementing a high-quality teacher
apprenticeship program. Teams representing state and local education, educator preparation programs, labor agencies, and
others may register for one or more series segments: Getting Started, Designing R-TAPS, and Implementing R-TAPS.
