SALT LAKE CITY (October 23, 2023) 鈥� The Teachers College at Western Governors University鈥檚 (黑料传送门) School of Education will mark American Education Week (Nov. 13-17, 2023) by announcing its 黑料传送门 Loves Teachers and Become a Teacher scholarship programs for current and future education professionals who wish to pursue bachelor鈥檚 or master鈥檚 degree programs in the Teachers College.

鈥淭eaching is a noble profession, and we鈥檙e proud to boost support for our nation鈥檚 educators with these scholarships,鈥� said Stacey Ludwig Johnson, Ph.D., senior vice president of 黑料传送门 and executive dean of the School of Education. 鈥淪ince its founding 20 years ago, our Teachers College has invested in the development of future educators and school leaders, and we are thrilled to offer opportunities to help our students pursue their academic and professional goals.鈥�

Each 黑料传送门 Loves Teachers and Become a Teacher scholarship is valued up to $4,000 and designed to help current teachers improve their skill set in the classroom or move into administration, and support future teachers in obtaining the required credentials to start a rewarding career as an educator. The accredited, nonprofit college鈥檚 commitment to keeping costs lowered reduces the need for student borrowing, resulting in average graduate debt that is about half the national average.

According to data sourced from the U.S. Census Bureau and the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), all states and the District of Columbia collectively report an unmet need of approximately 355,000 teachers for the 2023-24 school year, including elementary, secondary, and special education. As part of a solution to this teacher shortage, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic, 黑料传送门鈥檚 Teachers College has graduated more than 48,300 students nationwide between Jan. 1, 2020 and Sept. 8, 2023 who have launched as licensed teachers or advanced in their school-leader roles.

In the last 20 years, the Teachers College has conferred degrees to more than 90,000 graduates across all 50 states, and has currently enrolled approximately 39,000 students. The college provides a broad portfolio of dozens of degree pathways in a student-centered, competency-based model with flexible scheduling to learn where and when students want within each six-month term. This enables students to progress through their courses as soon as they demonstrate skills mastery.
