The Education Commission of the States has compiled state-specific data related to teacher shortages and provides a national comparison of state policies to recruit and retain teachers across the teacher pipeline.
According to a 2019 report from REL Northwest, educator shortages in Montana are being driven by school systems’ inability to recruit qualified candidates for open positions, rather than by high rates of teacher turnover, as in many other states. The study is the first to examine educator shortages and turnover using Montana administrative data and the results of a statewide survey of educators.
The Center on Great Teachers & Leaders (GTL) Mentoring and Induction Toolkit is a ready-to-use resource for states working closely with districts to build strong mentoring and induction programs. The purpose of the toolkit is to give regional comprehensive centers (RCCs) and state education agencies (SEAs) tools, resources, and support to facilitate meaningful conversations with local education agencies (LEAs) about the design and implementation of effective, high-quality mentoring and induction programs.
Explore NCTQ data and analysis of state laws, rules, and regulations that shape the teaching profession- from teacher preparation, licensing, and evaluation to compensation, professional development, and dismissal policies.
From 2012-2019, the Center on Great Teachers and Leaders was a national content center under the federally funded Comprehensive Center Network. Following the grant's conclusion, AIR continues to operate the GTL Center and offer services across a range of core evidence-based talent management strategies.
