State Support And Incentives Adopt the core propositions of NBPTS;; Grant a north carolina teaching license to relocating teachers who possess National Board certification;; http://www.nbpts.org/about/stateinfo.cfm?state=North Carolina
Extractions: National Board Certification: Is North Carolina Getting Its Money's Worth? January 14, 2003 The National Board for Professional Teaching Standards (NBPTS) is a private organization formed in 1987 with the goal of establishing standards for teaching effectiveness and certifying those teachers it identified as especially capable. NBPTS has written standards that purport to show what accomplished teachers should know and be able to do and has established a certification procedure that relies on videotapes, portfolios and written essays. There are currently more than 16,000 National Board certified teachers in the United States, more than 20% of them in North Carolina. North Carolina encourages teachers to seek NBPTS certification with incentives that exceed that of any other state. The state pays the application fees ($2,300) for as many teachers as wish to pursue certification any year, and grants an automatic 12 percent salary increase to those who receive certification. Many other states have chosen to give far less support to the NBPTS program, and some give no support at all. Despite the large amounts of tax money that has been spent promoting certification, there is no evidence that the certification process does anything to elevate a teachers ability to instruct students. Furthermore there is no evidence that certified teachers are better at producing high student achievement than are non-certified teachers. The only study that looked at measured student learning found that NBPTS certified teachers were no more likely to produce exceptional student progress than were other teachers, and that some certified teachers had abnormally low student progress.

North Carolina supports important initiatives to help our state's children reach high academic standards. One such initiative is North Carolina's direct support for teachers seeking National Board Certification. A recent study funded by the U.S. Department of Education analyzed the effectiveness of National Board Certified Teachers by studying the records of more than 600,000 North Carolina students in grades three, four and five. Simply put, students learn more when taught by a National Board Certified teacher. According to the North Carolina Public Schools Web site (www.ncpublic schools.org/nbpts), "National Board Certification, offered by the National Board For Professional Teaching Standards (NBPTS), is a way to recognize the accomplished teaching that is occurring in North Carolina's classrooms. The certification process is based on high and rigorous standards that evaluate teaching practice through performance-based assessments; the ultimate result is improved performance and achievement for North Carolina's students."
