CalState TEACH Teacher Preparation Program

CalStateTEACH is an online site-based Multiple Subject Teacher Preparation Program that prepares creative, collaborative, and reflective teachers. We are eco-sensitive and techno- inventive. We have a complex mobile learning initiative dedicated to preparing tomorrow’s teachers and ameliorating the digital divide in rural remote and urban underserved schools.

CalStateTEACH is looking for teacher educators to prepare teachers for tomorrow’s schools. We are searching for experienced teacher leaders or administrators who are open to change and ready to develop 21st century skills and knowledge. We expect faculty to be grounded in educational technology and have experience in the use of an array of software. We require that faculty have a depth of experience in clinical supervision and understand the nature of instructional rounds.
