Teacher Licensure Collaborative
To help build strong and aligned systems of educator preparation, the Learning Policy Institute has partnered with national membership organizations and stakeholders from 15 interested states to establish the Teacher Licensure Collaborative (TLC). The TLC supports participating states in revising teacher licensure and certification standards to incorporate whole child practices, include social and emotional learning, and ensure alignment with the science of learning and development. Research from this field points to important transformations in teaching practice that are needed to ensure that all children experience the strong relationships, skillful teaching, and personalized supports that enable healthy development and successful lives.
