AI Summary
This bill directs the Teacher Standards and Practices Commission (TSPC) to create a five-year pilot program for licensing teachers who work in subjects outside of career and technical education, such as math, science, and social studies. The pilot program will be structured similarly to the existing career and technical education teaching license program and includes several key requirements: school districts can partner with a Regional Educator Network to form an instructor appraisal committee, the program will specifically target teacher candidates providing classroom instruction in non-career and technical subjects, and teacher candidates must receive mentorship through the local Regional Educator Network. The pilot program is set to run until January 2, 2031, after which it will be automatically repealed. This approach appears designed to provide an alternative pathway to teacher licensure that allows for more flexible professional development and evaluation, potentially addressing teacher recruitment and retention challenges in critical subject areas.
