Our Services

We work with state agencies and school districts to launch or expand GYO programs for aspiring teachers, lead teachers and principals.

Once a partnership is established between district(s) and educator preparation providers, we then get the program registered for apprenticeship to be eligible for labor dollars.

We have worked with over 30 states to date!

We help states and school districts to have more flexibility in staffing and address the most common critical shortages areas by offering free additional endorsements in SPED or ESL (other subjects can be available) to current educators.

Teachers who have a SPED endorsement have higher retention rates regardless of what they are assigned to teach. Additional endorsements provide more tools in the toolkit for teachers and are more useful than professional development.

We will support states and districts to identify the right provider for them, at an affordable rate using already available funding.

Our past work led to over 5,000 educators earning endorsements in these two content areas for free.

We work with state education agencies and local school districts to become their own educator preparation provider so they can certify their own teacher to ensure quality control and reduce costs.

We have two National Teachers of the Year on our team, plus two more as consultants. They are available to run mentoring/coaching programs for new teachers, lead teachers, mentors, etc.

We are opening Fall 2026 as our own educator preparation provider and can work with your state or district to get aspiring teachers licensed or for current teachers to add endorsements.
