Info Session Set for Programs to Bring Second-Career Adults into Teaching

The opportunity to become a teacher is now within the reach of more working adults because of Professional Immersion programs offered by Johns Hopkins and the Montgomery County Public Schools. These two-year master's degree programs are designed to fill critical areas of need in schools by bringing second-career adults into the field of education.

The programs are open to individuals who have at least a four-year undergraduate degree and meet Johns Hopkins entrance requirements. All tuition, books and fees are paid for by Montgomery County Public Schools after the first six credits of the program, and candidates are eligible for a stipend in the teaching fellow portion. Candidates agree to teach in Montgomery County for three years after completing the program.

Participants take classes at JHU's Montgomery County Campus and serve as teaching interns and fellows in the Montgomery County schools.

An information session will be held from 4:30 to 6 p.m. on Thursday, Jan. 27, at the Montgomery County Campus. Sessions start on the half hour. For more information, go to www.cte.jhu.edu/JHUPartnershipsMCPS.
