[neact] Professional Development Opportunity

The American Board for Certification of Teacher Excellence
(www.abcte.org <http://www.abcte.org/> ) is seeking subject matter
experts to participate in the development process for our certification
exams in physics and chemistry and we need your help.  

 

The American Board is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to
increasing the number of highly qualified teachers available to schools
around the country and is partially funded by a grant through the U.S.
Department of Education. 

 

The American Board offers the Passport to TeachingSM certification - a
respected and efficient way for knowledgeable and motivated individuals
to become teachers. One element of this premiere teacher certification
program is a rigorous content area exam for potential teachers.

 

To develop these assessments, we rely on the knowledge of subject matter
experts. Most meetings of subject matter expert panels will be held in
Washington, DC.  Each participant will receive a daily honorarium and
the American Board will cover food, lodging and travel expenses.

 

This is a unique opportunity to change the lives of our nation's youth
by ensuring that they are taught by exceptional teachers.  As a
contributor to the development of our exams, you will be helping place
individuals with demonstrated subject area mastery and professional
teaching knowledge into our classrooms.

 

If you are interested in participating, please forward your resume or CV
to Ryan Wilkes at rwilkes@xxxxxxxxxx
