Abstract

The growing teacher shortage in our P-12 schools has become a nationwide situation that universities, P-12 school systems, community colleges, and other stakeholders are addressing. Educator preparation programs have employed creative measures to recruit and retain teacher education candidates. To increase the teacher pipeline and improve retention in educator preparation programs, colleges and universities are creating pathways that are accommodating a variety of needs and meeting candidates where they are. A regional university in Southeastern North Carolina is intentionally creating opportunities for support and growth among a diverse population of teacher candidates. This chapter will explore those opportunities and share next steps and future ideas for research and development.
