Why is Temple University sponsoring this National Board Certification Center?
• Pennsylvania Governor Edward Rendell decided to make National Board Certification, including fee support, part of his education program. • Currently four universities – Duquesne, Gannon, East Stroudsburg, and Temple – have been selected, based on an application process, to provide candidate preparation and support to interested teachers and state-licensed school counselors. The program is funded by the state. • Temple University supports improving teacher quality in Pennsylvania.
