For Student Teachers…

If you are student teaching this semester, we encourage you to meet with your cooperating teacher and university supervisor to discuss the procedures for taking time off from student teaching occasionally in order to interview and participate in our upcoming Teacher Job Fair. While student teaching is an extremely important part of your professional preparation, cooperating teachers and university supervisors are receptive to negotiating some time off for this purpose.

Provides teacher education majors with real-world interviewing experience by engaging seasoned professionals from school systems as volunteer mock interviewers.

Date: Thurs., February 28, 2013

How do I sign up for Mock Interview Day?
