Deans for Impact on NACCTEP Now
from NACCTEP Now Hosted by The National Association of Community College Teacher Education Programs
Valerie Sakimura, Executive Director, and Jim Heal, Senior Program Director, from Deans for Impact join NACCTEP Now to discuss their work to equip future teachers with the tools to create rigorous, equitable, and inclusive classrooms so that all children thrive. For nearly 10 years, their organization has supported close to 200 teacher preparation programs and school districts in preparing aspiring and novice teachers to enact instruction grounded in a scientific understanding of how students learn. Through their Impact Academy fellowship, they offer deans and program leaders a community of practice to discuss and work through the challenges that different educator preparation programs face. Additionally, they offer one-to-one coaching as a part of this academy that kicks off and concludes with in-person meetings in June of each year. Applications for the coming cohort are open through the end of March 2024. Information and a link to the application can be found on their website at: https://www.deansforimpact.org/programming/for-educator-preparation-leaders/impact-academy
