Welcome to the ProfessionDoor
Student Teachers, this area has been designed to introduce you to the profession. The teaching profession requires leadership, integrity, dedication and a host of management skills.

The U.S. Department of Labor provides a description of the educational services industry including training requirements, salaries, working conditions and the industry outlook.

New standards recently released by NCATE require that education schools be able to show evidence that their graduates can successfully teach children before gaining accreditation.

Choosing a School of Education
The National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE) has developed nine questions for evaluating a school of education.

Experience
As you prepare for a teaching career, you should enhance your skills by choosing part-time jobs and activities that provide relevant experiences. Suggestions are offered in our publication Experience Teaching.

Continuous Improvement Tool Kit
The best of intentions never become reality unless definite plans are created and followed. We offer a Continuous Improvement Tool Kit to help you enhance your professional development efforts.
