Teacher's Academy of Maryland

Instructor: Mrs. Hoover

The Teacher Academy of Maryland is a Career and Technology Education (CTE) instructional program that aligns with the Interstate Teacher Assessment and Support Consortium (InTASC) and the Maryland Essential Dimensions of Teaching (EdoTs).  The program prepares students for further education and careers in the education profession.  The program consists of four high school credits that focus on teaching as a profession, human growth and development, learning theory, and curriculum and instruction.  These credits are designed to articulate to a Maryland post secondary teacher education program.  Upon completion of the program and passing the ParaPro test, high school graduates are ready for employment in the teaching profession. This program is based on the outcomes of the Maryland Associate of Arts in Teaching (A.A.T.) degree, which aligns with the National Council for the Accreditation for Teacher Education (NCATE) standards.
