INSIDE INDY | If you have ever considered a career switch to teaching, the IndyTeach program is a paid one-year apprenticeship that ends with a state of Indiana teaching license.
INDIANAPOLIS — There is a hands-on teacher program in Indy and it's helping fill a teacher shortage here and nationwide.
They start with small group instruction, and co-teaching, and then have a full classroom takeover towards the end of the year. As a teacher shortage faces the entire country, Westerman said the apprenticeship proves that there are people who want to teach. "Finally, being able to accomplish that, get that teaching license, one year into the program was a phenomenal feeling," Curry said.
