Educator Support
College Access Partnerships (CAP) is committed to building strategic partnerships to strengthen our local communities through college access and success. The newest grant program to join CAP is Empowering Teacher Learning (ETL). This program is a virtual, teacher-directed professional learning program designed to add flexibility to recertification and state licensure renewals for western North Carolina educators. It will supplement the traditional professional development model of in-seat class time with a micro-credentialing model — one that allows regional educators to learn at their own pace, with the content and resources they choose, and be recognized for their efforts.
