3.1. The purposes of this policy are to:
1) establish a
collaborative process for program approval;
2) improve EPPs and potential teachers by
incorporating program guidelines based on research and best
practices;
3) ensure that those
who are prepared for employment in the public schools have the
knowledge, skills, and dispositions necessary to function as entry-level
members of the profession; and
4)
ensure that IHEs work collaboratively with the public and nonpublic schools in
designing and delivering professional educator preparation experiences to
increase student achievement through written agreements with participating
schools. This policy relates only to approved EPPs leading to licensure in West
Virginia public schools and does not supersede any licensure requirements
mandated by W. Va. Code and/or W. Va. 126CSR136, Policy 5202, Minimum
Requirements for the Licensure of Professional/ Paraprofessional Personnel and
Advanced Salary Classifications (Policy 5202).
3.2. Policy 5100 commits the WVBE to develop, revise, or adopt the program objectives, assessment instruments, and proficiency levels for the professional preparation of educational personnel through a collaborative effort involving the West Virginia Commission for Professional Teaching Standards (WVCPTS), the West Virginia Department of Education (WVDE), the governing boards for public and private West Virginia IHEs, public school administrators, and classroom teachers.
