   Extractions: by C. Emily Feistritzer The alternative teacher certification movement rose out of a need for more and better teachers. Faced with the threat of teacher shortages and concern about the quality of the teaching force, states have stepped forward to meet the demand. They have developed new avenues whereby people could come into the teaching profession. These alternative teacher certification routes provide opportunities for people from various educational backgrounds and walks of life to become teachers. They have opened doors to teaching for persons from other careers, from the military, from liberal arts colleges, former teachers who want to upgrade their credentials and get back into teaching and for people who trained to teach years ago but never did. The National Center for Education Information (NCEI) has been polling the state departments of education annually since 1983 regarding teacher education and certification. We have found a rapid development of alternative routes at the state level. By 1997, 41 states, plus the District of Columbia, report having some type of alternative teacher certification program. States report a total of 117 programs now available for persons who already have a bachelor's degree and want to become licensed to teach. It is estimated that more than 75,000 persons have been licensed through such state-run programs. Thousands more are being licensed to teach who are participating in college alternative teacher preparation programs. Other findings of NCEI's 1997 survey of the states regarding alternative teacher certification:

    Extractions: International Employment for Teachers Alternative Certification Many states have developed or are initiating programs that provide alternative routes to teacher certification, particularly for mid-career professionals. The goal of such programs is to draw a diversity of individuals with in-depth subject matter backgrounds into teaching careers. Requirements for an alternative teaching license vary by state. For an overseas position, it does not matter what state your license is from. Generally, applicants must hold a bachelors degree in the subject to be taught, achieve a passing score on state-required examinations, complete an intensive teacher preparation program, and possibly fulfill a supervised teaching internship. Specific information on which school systems are offering internships can be requested from the schools. After satisfactory completion of these requirements, the applicant will be issued a teaching credential.

Education degree programs during the 1950s to 1980 generally were found to be deficient in content knowledge; prospective teachers learned how to teach, not what to teach. In contrast, alternative licensing candidates usually have already acquired knowledge of a particular discipline or content area in study for their bachelor's degree. They also have broad general content knowledge from the core programs of their college or university. Researchers offered this qualification early on as a reason for supporting alternative programs. However, some undergraduate degrees may seem more appropriate to teaching than others. For example, a psychology major or a liberal arts major at the B.A. level provides a strong foundation for understanding child development or the culture of the society, both areas of study in professional teacher education. Degrees in other professional areas, such as accounting or economics, may not satisfy state requirements for licensing. Candidates with such degrees may therefore find it necessary to take additional content course work.

Issue areas that have been addressed recently include teacher recruitment and retention, teacher training, professional development and training teachers to deal with visual or hearing-impaired students. This ECS StateNote looks at how states are addressing these issue areas. Forty-seven states and the District of Columbia have a separate special education certificates or endorsements for the education of hearing-impaired students. (Montana, New Mexico and Washington do not.) Some states recognize that training special education teachers alone may not be enough to provide students with the help they need. For example, California passed legislation in September 2000 requiring the state’s Commission on Teacher Credentials to issue standards for a specialization in counseling hearing-impaired pupils.
