Center for Inspired Teaching, a DC based nonprofit organization, is accepting applications for a 15-month state accredited teacher certification program that recruits, selects, prepares and supports exceptional individuals who wish to serve the children of the District of Columbia as teachers.

Program Includes:
• Coursework and intensive mentoring throughout the first year of teaching.
• Connection to hundreds of passionate educators throughout Inspired Teaching’s network of teachers who are serving as changemakers in the DC region.
• Access to AmeriCorps benefits for service, including an educational award.
• Successful program completion yields a DC Regular II License and graduate credits towards a Masters degree in education.

The Inspired Teacher Certification Program prepares educators in 3 areas: Early Childhood (PreK-3), Elementary (1-6), and English Language Arts (7-12). For the 2011-2012 program year, the Inspired Teacher Certification Program is accepting applications for the following two tracks: Early Childhood and Elementary.

Inspired Teaching offers two routes to become a certified teacher:
Inspired Teaching Fellow: Fellows seek employment as full-time lead classroom teachers in a DC Public or Charter School.
Inspired Teaching Fellow-in-Residence: In partnership with the Inspired Teaching Demonstration Public Charter School and Capital City Public Charter School, Fellows-in-Residence work in collaboration with lead teachers in grades PreK-6.

Inspired Teaching is committed to building a teacher workforce that reflects the diversity of DC's student population; people of color, speakers of languages other than English, and individuals with disabilities are welcome and encouraged to apply.
