Join a National Board Cohort!

Candidates meet monthly with colleagues at their school site, or in a mixed site group, to share, analyze, and reflect on instructional practice outlined by Cohort Guidelines. Cohorts have an NBCT Professional Learning Facilitator to provide structure and strategies for the group. Consistent attendance is a requirement. 

Past candidates have reported numerous benefits to being a member of a cohort:

• Tremendous Professional Growth

• Community and Camaraderie

• Increased Understanding of the National Boards Process

• Accountability and Focus

• Peer Review and Feedback

Application required for All Cohort Members, new and returning candidates.

Cohort Application 2023-2024 DUE October 1, 2023

Please review the cohort guidelines to be sure you understand the commitment.
