[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]National Boards is a wonderfully reflective experience but earning it does not make you the greatest teacher in the school. I received my NBCT a couple of years ago and when I look at some of the characters in my building who also have their certification I'm not that impressed. [/quote]

I feel the same. I paid $30k for my MAT (dumb, I know) back in 2006. Accumulated $16k in interest (loans were deferred for a long time). Paid on it for a long time and just recently got it forgiven.  I’m now in the MA +60 lane which gets me a few extra k per year, but nothing like I could earn with NBCT.

I’ve decided I’ve done enough and I refuse to jump through more hoops even if it would get me an extra 10k a year.

Who is the company/organization making money from NBCT? Maybe they lobbied towards politicians to incentivize NBCT more so that they could make more money?

I believe it just might be the same organization that operates the WIDA testing for English Learners. If it's not, it's the same type of highway-robbery parasite organization.[/quote]
