WYE MILLS, MARYLAND — Teachers working in Maryland classrooms on a conditional license can get one-on-one help sorting out their path to a professional license at an online session from Chesapeake College on Thursday, Oct. 29.
The virtual open Q&A runs from 6 to 7 p.m. The college's listing asks: "Are you a Conditionally Licensed Teacher looking to earn your Professional License? Not sure which licensure pathway is the best fit for you?" Participants can connect one-on-one with an education navigator to explore licensure options and find the pathway that fits their goals.
To register, email eshec [at] chesapeake.edu, the address on the college's event page.
The session comes as the state reports fewer open teaching jobs. The Maryland State Department of Education said Oct. 19 that teacher vacancies statewide dropped from 2,145 in the 2022-23 school year to 572 this school year. The department said a new state law takes additional steps to address the teacher shortage by developing fully licensed teachers, including support for debt-free pathways to licensure.
