Educator preparation program improvement goals for the upcoming program year |

To leverage the newly developed identity as a single SO across all our licensure programs to support quality, efficiency, innovation, and use of resources. We look forward to regular gatherings, occasional retreats, and shared support from our new Educator Licensure Program Manager. |

To explore how programming will change with the implementation of the AntiRacism Domain that will be forthcoming from DESE. This parallels efforts within Simmons and will shape recruitment, professional development, advising, curriculum, and field based experience, all of which will impact candidate experience. |
