TCAP recognizes the value of National Board Certification process as an outstanding professional development opportunity for educators. TCAP also recognizes the need for providing a collaborative environment to support arts educators before, during, and following the certification process.
Many arts educators find themselves geographically isolated from colleagues or support providers.
The TCAP Online Support and Resource will provide a working space for such educators. Phase One of this new aspect to the TCAP website is what you find on line today. One includes various general informational resources and an emerging Tutorial section to support the National Board Certification process for arts as well as generalist candidates. Phase Two of this project will include specific resources for arts educators. Phase Two will also begin to pilot a virtual support environment.
