ANNOUNCEMENT: The National Board has changed the eligibility requirements to begin the process of National Board Certification. We are opening up access to educators interested in the Board certification process by allowing candidates to begin the process of Board certification before completing three (3) years of successful teaching (or counseling for the School Counseling certificate area). While this change allows candidates to begin the process earlier, educators will need to complete three years of teaching employment to become Board-certified. For more information, review https://www.nbpts.org/certification/policy-change-for-certification-requirements/
2024 ALSDE National Board Scholarship Application Coming Soon! It will be due on March 31. The link here will be the one that houses the scholarship application once posted. For your assistance, you can review the 2023 application that is on the link for planning purposes.
