Must a program with a small teaching staff demonstrate that 75% of teachers and 50% of assistant teachers/teacher aides meet Candidacy Requirements?
All programs must demonstrate that 75% of teachers and 50% of assistant teachers/teacher aides meet Candidacy Requirements. NAEYC does not “round up” when determining the percentage of teaching staff that are meeting Candidacy Requirements. For example, a program with only 3 teachers must demonstrate that all teachers meet Candidacy Requirements because if only 2 teachers were meeting, the percentage of teachers meeting would be 66.66%, which is below 75%.
