OHIO Center for Clinical Practice in Education
We greatly value and appreciate our school-university partnerships and all that our mentor teachers/school based teacher educators do to prepare our next generation of teachers (NAPDS Essential 2). We are dedicated to supporting this work and teacher professional development (NAPDS Essential 3) through the sharing the PDS Graduate Fee Waiver resources (NAPDS Essential 9). The PDS Graduate Fee Waivers have supported teachers seeking advanced degrees and professional development from the beginning of these important school-university relationships.
