Southern Illinois Teacher Transfer Pathway

Grow Your Own Teachers Illinois

Camino Group led GYO-IL, Carbondale Elementary Schools, John A Logan Community College, and Southern Illinois University in creating a pathway for teachers assistants to go back to school and get on track to earning their teaching license.  

Project Details

We know that there are talented, would-be educators in our schools today, but traditional higher ed systems are not geared to serve them. We built a program that brings together a partnership across the education sector that created a new, accessible pathway to licensure that proves that the dream of teaching is strong and that the barriers to entry can be overcome. 

Our project in action.
