Teachers can earn a Recognized designation for TIA if they become a National Board Certificated Teacher (NBCT). National Board Certification (NBC) was designed to develop, retain, and recognize accomplished teachers and to generate ongoing improvement in schools nationwide. It is the most respected professional certification available in education and provides numerous benefits to teachers, students and schools.
Region 4 offers teachers pursuing NBC with learning, support, and resources through self-paced, online professional development. These opportunities will provide a deepened understanding of National Board, experience how to implement instructional strategies, and determine goals for successful completion of National Board Certification. See below for more information and register on the Region 4 website.
The Region 4 National Board Candidate Cohort (R4NBC2) will no longer be accepting candidates, with the last cohort completing component work during the 2024-2025 school year. Please reach out to Texas National Board Coalition for information about joining a cohort.
