HB 2731: Teachers/advanced cert & edu

Regarding advanced certification and education for teachers.

Summary

Finds that advanced certification and education for teachers should focus on deepening teachers' knowledge in the academic content area in which they instruct. Finds that current professional certification programs fail to provide adequate focus on academic content, instead offering general and often repetitive coursework in classroom management, learning theory, personal growth, and other topics.
