My Project

"There is a decade of research to support the impact that Board-certified teachers have on students. Students of Board-certified teachers learn more than their peers without Board-certified teachers. Studies have also found that the positive impact of having a Board-certified teacher is even greater for BiPOC and low-income students."

“National Board Certification is often cited as an indicator of effective teaching.

For me, it wasn’t just a certification, it was the most impactful professional development I have ever taken on, and my students still benefit to this day.” Mark Gardner, NBCT from WashingtonMark is not alone. A national survey of effective teachers’ views on PD found 96% of respondents shared that National Board Certification was among the top three most impactful PD experiences for advancing their practice."
