Abstract
Abstract: The South Carolina T3 Coalition has designed this alternative to provide requisite training and credentialing for retiring military personnel to become teachers in the schools most in need. Incorporating a unique blend of on-line instruction and hands-on practical experiences, the program is accessible around the clock and around the world. Participants may begin training within two years of retirement, and, through special Proviso by the state legislature, they will be classified as resident students at the four partner universities. The curriculum, grounded in a documentable knowledge base, reflects what a new, second-career professional needs to know and be able to do to become a successful teacher. Featuring a robust curriculum, a powerful e-learning delivery mode, a strong research/evaluation component, a year-long paid internship, and two years of follow-up with skilled mentor teachers, this program has the capacity for ameliorating the teacher shortage.
