Who We Are

Nevada Teacher Corps prepares individuals without teaching certification to become teachers for the students who need them most – those in our most underserved communities, where systemic inequities and individual prejudices deny too many children access to a great education. Through Nevada Teacher Corps, you will elevate your academic and professional expertise into a high-impact career as a certified Elementary Education teacher in Clark County Public Schools and various charter schools in the Las Vegas area.

Why Las Vegas

Nevada Teacher Corps (NTC) is a two-year ambitious, teacher-centered effort to invigorate underserved Nevada schools with great teaching and leadership. NTC builds a passionate group of mission-driven teachers, and provides the training, coaching and leadership development they need to offer a transformative education for Nevada students.

Nevada Teacher Corps provides an accelerated pathway into teaching for individuals who aren’t yet certified as educators, but who possess the dedication and content knowledge to teach in some of the highest-need schools throughout Las Vegas.

Who Our Students Need

We’re looking for graduating seniors, recent college graduates, and professionals who possess the dedication and skills to teach Elementary Education.

You may have built a successful career, and now wish to give back as a teacher. You could be a recent graduate who wants to share your passion for learning with Nevada’s students. Whatever your background, you believe that every student can achieve at a high-level and will do whatever it takes to help them get there.

We are currently seeking outstanding candidates to teach Elementary Education.

Benefits of Nevada Teacher Corps

• Certification that Counts: Throughout your first year in the classroom, we carefully assess and support your growth, with expert coaching and personalized support. Nevada Teacher Corps Fellows are recognized not simply as certified teachers, but as having a proven track record of classroom success.
