About the Program
The Hire in Advance Program guarantees active military members a teaching
position up to three years before they separate/retire from service. The program
provides a seamless transition from the military to the classroom while helping fill a
growing teacher shortage.
Working directly with the participating school district, Hire
in Advance participants will be interviewed and have their background and initial
credentials reviewed. If qualified, they will be guaranteed a position within the
district. A specific school is not guaranteed, but the agreement secures a job in the
district at the credential-qualified grade level. A salary projection also is provided.
Individuals will receive a signed “Letter of Intent for Employment” a year to two years
in advance outlining specific contingent requirements, such as testing and education
requirements.
