You need to contact Wanda Harris @ 615-532-2804 and she will send you an application for the guidelines.  You will need to complete both pages.  You will be assigned a mentor by our office.  You will need to complete page one and have your director and mentor sign off on page two and return these pages within 10 days to our office.  Once they are returned, you will be placed on the training table and this will give you clearance to teach the program, providing you have a valid teaching license and the correct endorsements.

You will need to attend the New Teacher Training and Safety Training at the CATE Conference at the end of September.

Your will need to complete the mentorship and visitation days by the end of the first semester and have them signed off by your mentor.  The form will then need to be mailed with original signatures to my office to be placed on file.

You will need to attend the training during the next summer session or you may attend an out of state vendor training.  If you choose to go to a vendor training site; make sure your bring back an agenda, and a certificate.  Both must be submitted to our office for you to be approved.

The training does not certify any teacher or give them an endorsement.
