Melanie Burney at The Philadelphia Inquirer reports the Camden City School District has launched a new Federally-recognized Apprenticeship Program to help ready its Classroom Aides for teaching positions.  The Teacher Pathway Apprenticeship is said to be the first of its kind in New Jersey, designed to help fill a growing Educator shortage by providing financial aid and other resources to help Para-Professionals obtain certification to become Teachers.  About 18 states have created Federally-recognized Apprenticeship Programs, according to the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Apprenticeship.
