What the Teaching Academy of Maryland Does for Students

 

TAM offers students interested in the education profession a program in the Education and Training Services Pathway of the Human Resources Services Cluster. This State-approved CTE career pathway is built upon a program of study that is aligned with the Interstate Teacher Assessment and Support Consortium (InTASC). TAM’s program of study is based upon outcomes of the Maryland Associate of Arts in Teaching (A.A.T.) degree which aligns with the National Council for the Accreditation for Teacher Education (NCATE) standards. TAM exposes students to rigorous course work and college-level texts. Successful TAM program completers have the potential to be awarded three (3) to four (4) undergraduate credits at institutions of higher education that have executed articulation agreements with local school systems.
