We are committed to lending transparency and increasing public awareness about the four sets of institutions that have the greatest impact on teacher quality: states, teacher preparation programs, school districts, and teachers unions.<\/p>\n<p>NCTQ&#8217;s primary focus in 2013 is on teacher prep. The 2012 interim State Teacher Policy Yearbook provides a road-map to states fixing their teacher prep regulations, and the first-ever edition of the NCTQ Teacher Prep Review will be released in June 2013, providing an in-depth look at over 1,000 college-based teacher preparation programs. Our district studies also continue to help communities improve their recruitment and retention of a highly capable teaching force. <a title=\"National Council on Teacher Quality\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nctq.org\/p\" target=\"_blank\">LEARN MORE<\/a><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div>  \n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div> \n <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u00a0 \u00a0 MISSION The National Council on Teacher Quality advocates for reforms in a broad range of teacher policies at","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":6,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"page-masonry.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-412","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/greatteaching.carnegie.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/412","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/greatteaching.carnegie.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/greatteaching.carnegie.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/greatteaching.carnegie.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/greatteaching.carnegie.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=412"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/greatteaching.carnegie.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/412\/revisions"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/greatteaching.carnegie.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/6"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/greatteaching.carnegie.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=412"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
