It has been MFPE's and the Montana Professional Teaching Foundation's great privilege to provide NBC candidate support since 1997. Jump Start is our annual event that is designed to provide intensive training to candidates on how to be successful in each component of the NBC process. Jump Start offers a session on each of the components of NBC as well as a session on the foundations of candidacy. During these sessions, candidates receive tips on completing the National Board Certification process from National Board Certified teachers. In addition to Jump Start, MPTF has a cadre of trained facilitators that are available to assist candidates throughout the NBC process.
JUMP START:
Summer 2020 Jump Start is offered twice. Jump Start Montana will be a three-day workshop that will prepare you to be a successful National Board Candidate. The three-day workshop will cover Foundations of Candidacy, and Components 1, 2, 3, 4.
Cost: MFPE member - $200 Non-Member - $500
Changes due to Covid-19
As we are all keenly aware, face-to-face gatherings cannot be how we do business right now. Therefore, we are moving this summer’s Jump Start to an online format. We are working to ensure that sessions are still engaging, interactive and rigorous. We recognize that six or eight hour days on Zoom are not enjoyable ways to learn. For that reason, we are going to spread sessions out across several dates in order to make this process work. These sessions will be in lieu of the Billings and Missoula options. We highly recommend you attend these sessions live, as they are designed to be interactive; recordings will be made available if you need. In addition, we will offer office hours throughout the course so you can connect to ask follow-up questions.
