The primary purpose of the California School Paraprofessional Teacher Training Program (PTTP) was to create local career ladders that enable school paraprofessionals--including teacher assistants, library-media aides, and instructional assistants--to become certificated classroom teachers in K-12 public schools. This pathway to teaching program was established in 1990 by Chapter 1444 of the Statutes of 1990 (SB 1690, Roberti), which added sections 69619 to 69619.3 to the State Education Code. The PTTP program was subsequently expanded by Chapters 737 and 831 of the Statutes of 1997 (The Wildman-Keeley-Solis Exemplary Teaching Training Act of 1997), which added sections 44390 to 44393 to the State Education Code. Chapter 554 of the Statutes of 2007 (SB 193, Scott) was signed into law in October 2007. SB 193 amended the law, which now includes a mandate for common entry and participation criteria for new PTTP participants. Changes to the PTTP and program funding occurred when, as part of the revised 2008-09 budget, the Governor and the Legislature changed how funds for General Fund Proposition 98 programs were allocated. PTTP funding was no longer identified as a per participant allocation and became a part of a block grant in which the local education agency (LEA) has flexibility in determining how PTTP funds are used. Due to the 2008-2009 Tier III funding designation, the enrollment of new participants in the PTTP program was suspended in March 2011. The 2013-2014 state budget process and subsequent legislation brought additional significant changes to the funding and program status of the PTTP. Funding for the PTTP and other Proposition 98 Local Assistance Programs is now part of the Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF). Program funding under LCFF remains flexible and the program sponsors may elect to use funds for other educational purposes. Additionally, under LCFF, most of the state categorical programs such as PTTP have been folded into the flexible funding for districts and county offices of education. AB 97 (Chap. 47, Stat. 2013) includes implementation requirements for LCFF. Section 44393 of the Education Code requires the Commission on Teacher Credentialing (Commission) to report to the Legislature regarding the status of the California School Paraprofessional Teacher Training Program. This report fulfills the Commission's legislative reporting requirement.
