Purpose
Senate Bill 57 (Scott) allows eligible individuals to complete a Commission-approved professional teacher induction program at a faster pace than the two years required to complete the traditional program. The intent of the law is to serve experienced and exceptional candidates who have not yet completed one year of a CCTC-approved induction program. Upon completion, a teacher will have met the induction requirement on the preliminary credential. ECO teachers complete Induction in one year instead of two years, entering as Year Two ECO candidates.
