Texas Teachers is an alternative teacher certification program based in Texas, established to address the state’s ongoing need for qualified educators. The organization provides a pathway for individuals with bachelor’s degrees to become certified teachers without completing a traditional university-based education program. The program offers certification in various teaching fields for grades EC-12 (Early Childhood through 12th grade) and operates under the approval of the Texas Education Agency (TEA). Texas Teachers combines online coursework with in-person training and classroom observation hours to prepare candidates for teaching positions in Texas public schools. Candidates enrolled in Texas Teachers complete approximately 300 hours of coursework, which includes teaching methodologies, classroom management strategies, and content-specific instruction. The program also requires participants to complete field-based experiences and pass the relevant Texas teacher certification exams. Since its inception, Texas Teachers has certified thousands of educators who now work in school districts across Texas. The organization maintains partnerships with numerous school districts throughout the state to facilitate clinical teaching experiences and job placement for its candidates. The program is particularly known for its flexible scheduling options and year-round enrollment opportunities, allowing candidates to begin their certification process at various points throughout the year.
