Did
you know that North Carolina A&T State University has one of only
two NCATE

the
state?
The other one is Appalachian
State. Click here for more on T&I

No Child Left Behind
Because No Child Left Behind says that all teachers will be qualified by June 1, 2006 and that all new teachers will be qualified within three years of being hired, the following is the current NC DPI interpretation of how lateral and provisional licensure is currently affected. In the face of No Child Left Behind, if you start teaching during June of 2003, or later, then you will have three years total to complete your licensure requirements. If you started teaching June of 2002, then you have four years to complete your requirements. Anyone who started teaching in 2001 or earlier would have five years to complete their requirements.
Currently,
the alternative licensure process for Trade and
Industrial Education
teachers
in North Carolina is that provisional status is
divided into three levels:
- Level One Certification
- Level Two (gain pay for X years of trade/work experience
upon
completing level 2)
- Level Three (gain more pay for X years of experience upon
completing
level 3)
Your
objective is to "clear" your provisional status and get a regular
initial
license.
Typically,
you will complete the requirements for your initial license while
being
classified
as a provisional teacher.
Regular
Trade and Industrial Education License Levels
- Initial License (must complete beginning teachers portfolio
within
first three years, etc.)
- Career License (without or with a bachelor's degree)
- M License (requires master's degree, gains a 10% pay raise)
There are two types of license-seeking
students.
One is Provisional 35. Your license will say Provisional 35 on it. If
you
are Provisional 35, then you may apply as a Post Baccalaureate Student
(PBS).
PBSs are non-degree seeking. Any other statement on your license means
that
you should apply for the Master of Art in Teaching: Technology
Education,
Degree Code 0307 0277 and not apply as PBS. If you are admitted to the
MAT
in Tech Ed, then you do not have to complete the degree after clearing
your
lateral license, but you should consider it. All of the work you take
to
clear your license will then count toward your master’s. As a PBS, only
12
semester hours will be able to count toward the master’s. The program
of
study for the MAT is the last page of this document.
Go to the graduate school and get
admitted
to our Technology Education Trade & Industrial Education, Teaching
concentration
Code 0277 by downloading their application forms. If your license says
35
Provisional then you may apply as a PBS student. If you apply as PBS
because
you are Provisional 35, then be sure to let the Grad School know that you are allowed to be PBS
because
you will not need Form V to be completed by the School of Education when you are done taking courses. If
your
license says any other code then apply to our Master of Arts in
Teaching
in Technology Education degree with GRE scores. That link is:
http://www.ncat.edu/%7Egradsch/
If you do not have a
bachelor's
degree, then
you need to get admitted as a Special Student (major code 0274) at the Office of Admissions
located at:
http://www.ncat.edu/~admit/
