Advancing Accomplished Teaching
The research is clear: Teaching is the most important school-related factor that determines student
success. More than a decade of research confirms that National Board Certified Teachers (NBCTs)
positively impact student learning. That’s why we’ve developed a wide range of advocacy resources
to help bring accomplished teaching – and by extension, improved student learning – to scale using
National Board Certification as a foundation for job-embedded, relevant and engaging professional
learning.
With collaboration and commitment from school districts, states, unions and higher education
institutions, a growing numbers of teachers, many of whom are organized in collaborative cohorts,
are using the National Board certification process to examine and strengthen their teaching practice.
This work is critical to the long-term success of our schools and to elevating the teaching profession.
