Innovative Practices in Workforce Development for K-12 Teaching: Diversifying the Teacher Pipeline through Project Impact
Chinaka S. DomNwachukwu
Multicultural Education, v31 n1 p27-32 2024
Workforce development in the K-12 educational setting, including the preparation of new teachers, faces multiple challenges today. These challenges include an ongoing teacher shortage and the lack of a coordinated educational preparation pipeline. Also problematic are the numerous obstacles on the path to teacher credentialing in states like California. This article discusses a teacher workforce development program, Project Impact, which seeks to diversify the teaching workforce. Since its launch in the spring of 2020, this program has added a minimum of 92 African American and Hispanic men to the teacher workforce in the Riverside and San Bernardino Counties of Southern California. The goal of the program is to exponentially increase the diversity of the teacher workforce in California's Inland Empire and beyond.
