“NHTI, working closely with NH DOE, has simplified the process so people can quickly transition into a teaching role,” said Kelly Moore Dunn, EdD, department chair of the Teacher Education Conversion Program (TECP). The online event is a great opportunity to meet with faculty and alumni of the program. It is also a great time to meet other adult learners seeking certification.

NHTI’s program is geared toward those who would like to become a licensed teacher or obtain an additional teacher licensure in the sciences, including computer science, mathematics, general special education, and English Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL). NHTI is the only community college in New England to offer a teacher licensure program.
