Trainings for Early Career Educators
The MTA has put together a series of trainings to be offered during January and February. Below are brief descriptions of each, followed by dates, times, and links for registration.
Professional Teacher Status (PTS)
There’s a lot of information out there about earning PTS, much of it wrong! This training explains exactly how to earn PTS, and what your many rights are before you earn it.

Licensure
Many educators have an understandably difficult time figuring out exactly what they need to do to get a professional license. This training walks you through the sometimes labyrinthian path. (We do not yet have a date for this training. We will send it out as soon as we have it.)
Evaluation
The evaluation procedure is mandated by state law and contract. This training explains exactly how it works and how you can best satisfy and take advantage of the process.
