The Teacher Residency Technical Advisory Workgroup aims to research and develop a statewide, full-year, pre-service teacher residency program funded by the Washington State Legislature.
Workgroup members will represent a diverse and wide range of state and local education agencies, educator preparation programs, district and school-based partners, state policy partners, and organizations that advocate for teachers and families.
Members of the workgroup will meet virtually on a monthly basis for six months starting January 2022. Each convening will feature expert presenters from Washington and beyond, to further the group’s thinking and present contemporary research and working residency models.
