Participants will engage in conversation and activities focused on the unique needs of career switcher teachers. They will contemplate green and red flags when considering career switchers for vacancies, understand the importance of supporting them differently than teachers in traditional teacher preparatory programs, expand their tool kit to employ unique strategies to grow the instructional capacity of career switchers, and prepare for instances when the supports in place are not working and or properly aligned to meet their unique needs. Participants will leave the session better prepared to support the career switcher teachers in the classrooms they supervise.
