State Education Department Awards $2 Million to 25 Mentor Teacher Internship Programs

The 快猫成版视频 awarded $2 million annually in grants to 25 recipients to implement Mentor Teacher Internship Programs (MTIP), State Education Commissioner MaryEllen Elia announced today. These programs enable experienced teachers in a district or BOCES to provide guidance and support to beginning teachers in their first or second year of teaching. The mentor and new teacher relationship will engage teachers in a productive experience designed to enhance educators鈥 skills and increase the likelihood of their remaining in the teaching profession. Funding for this initiative was approved by the Governor and Legislature in the 2017-2018 State budget.

鈥淣ew York鈥檚 expert teachers are the perfect candidates to help mentor and train our next generation of young teachers,鈥 Board of Regents Chancellor Betty A. Rosa said. 鈥淚t鈥檚 critical that we develop a strong pipeline for recruiting, preparing and supporting excellent educators to make sure every student has access to exceptional teaching.鈥

鈥淭eaching, more so than any other profession, determines our future--and we will not rest until we get it exactly right,鈥 Commissioner Elia said. 鈥淭eachers are the number one in-school factor for student success and I have made lifting up the teaching profession a priority. This program helps prepare and support our teachers, who then take that strong foundation into the classroom, and are able to put their students on the road to success.鈥

The Mentor Teacher Internship Program was established in 1986 by amendment to Education Law 3033, chapter 436.
