TECHNICAL TEACHER EDUCATION PROGRAM

CAREER AND TECHNICAL TEACHER EDUCATION PROGRAM (CTTEP)

We’ll help you prepare to teach at a career and technical center.

The Career & Technical Teacher Education Program (CTTEP) is part of the process for industry and business professionals to earn a Vermont State teaching license and to learn the art of teaching high school students in one of Vermont’s 17 career and technical centers. The program is designed to help new technical educators, through coursework and coaching, to become experts not only in their professional field of training but as individuals sharing their skills by teaching.

ALTERNATIVE ROUTE TO EARNING YOUR TEACHING LICENSE

CTTEP is an alternative route to Vermont teacher licensure, servicing educators who are hired at a technical center and then actively teach under a four-year apprentice license.

Once hired at a Vermont Career and technical center, teachers can enter the CTTEP four-year program to obtain a Level 1 Educator License.

To qualify for enrollment in the program, applicants must be one of the following:

  1. High school graduate with at least six years of experience in the desired trade.
  2. Hold an associate degree or higher with four years of work-related experience.
