Build your future in Western Massachusetts.  

The Teach Western Mass Residency Program is a one-year accelerated state accredited teaching preparation program that gives aspiring teachers the chance to lead a classroom while getting significant support and earning certification. Our customized credentialing program trains new teachers to be effective in the classroom while building strong relationships in their school communities and developing standards-based and culturally relevant curriculum for students in the region’s highest-need schools and subject areas.

Together we’re building a pipeline of dedicated and diverse educators that reflect the makeup of our vibrant region. Teach Western Mass Residents will spend a year developing foundational teaching techniques in an actual classroom with personalized training and expert coaches to guide them along the way.
