Can you see yourself in the classroom? Us too.
Like other high-skilled professions, there are important steps to becoming a teacher. If you’re not up for these steps yet, no worries. Head over to Explore Teaching, and we’ll get our ducks in a row.
To become a teacher, you’ll need to get licensed, so review licensure requirements up front. For 1-on-1 support, check out our free coaching options.
When it comes time to choose a program that will get you licensed to teach, use our criteria to compare options. It’s easier to find a match when you know what to look for (and what to avoid).
To make it easier to keep track of your next steps and deadlines, be sure to create an application checklist. (You get fee reimbursements once you’ve submitted your application.) If you get stuck, read our guides for info on how to prep for testing and which applications are required.
Is affordability top of mind? You’ve got options when it comes to funding your training, from work study to loans to scholarships. For the nitty-gritty details, check out our Finances guide.
