Madeline Will at Education Week reports the Federal Government is doubling down on what it sees as a promising solution to Teacher shortages: Let aspiring Teachers train on the job, at little to no cost, while earning a paycheck.  The U.S. Departments of Education and Labor announced they have invested tens of millions of dollars into expanding Registered Apprenticeship Programs for Teachers.  And for the first time, they also highlighted quality control: The Labor Department issued a set of nonbinding guidelines meant to ensure quality as more states adopt the approach.  Tennessee was the first State to register its “grow-your-own” program with the Federal Government in January 2022.
