Why Choose MTEC for certification?
ESTABLISHED

EARN AS YOU-LEARN
Participants work in a school as the paid teacher-of-record. This model is ideal for participants who learn best through experience.
ONE-ON-ONE MENTORING
Participants in the MTEC certification programs receive one-on-one support from a highly qualified mentor who provides formative feedback, “coaches into practice,” while modeling effective teaching strategies that work best with diverse populations of students.
