The purpose of this New York State Department of Labor (NYSDOL) Teacher Residency Program (TRP) Request for Applications (RFA) is to partially or fully fund master’s degree or teacher certification programs for graduate-level K-12 teacher candidates who complete a two-year residency program within a public New York State (NYS) school district or Board of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES) program. Funded programs would involve the State University of New York (SUNY), the City University of New York (CUNY), and/or NYS private colleges and universities partnering with public school districts/BOCES.
For the purposes of this RFA, a teacher residency program is a structured, school district or BOCES-supervised learning experience for a candidate in a teacher education program, designed and implemented through a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), or similar collaborative agreement, between an institution of higher education (IHE) and an educational setting. Under this MOU/collaborative agreement, the partners design the residency to provide candidates with instructional experiences connected to program learning goals and school district/BOCES priorities and develop shared expectations for the candidate’s gradual assumption of responsibilities in their placement in the subject area of the master’s degree sought. Candidates complete academic coursework during the residency and practice under the direct supervision of a certified school district/BOCES-based teacher.
Total Funding Available: $30,000,000
Minimum Award: $30,000
