Demonstrating Competency
The Tennessee Board of Regents Ready2Teach program is competency-based. Required competencies are a combination of state-identified evaluation dimensions on which every teacher in Tennessee is evaluated and especially critical teaching characteristics identified by our partner superintendents.
- Our entire program is organized around these competencies, and we will be accountable for ensuring that every one of our graduates has achieved them.
- Grades, seat time, and course completion no longer are important or required indicators of achievement.
- This means that we will have considerable flexibility in the experiences we require of our residents, as long as they are able to demonstrate competencies.
- All competencies are based on current research and theory, and we continue to conduct research on which competencies are important to student outcomes.
