PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS
The purpose of the Future Teachers of North Carolina (FTNC) program is to encourage high school juniors and seniors to consider the teaching profession by providing a meaningful and challenging opportunity to learn more about the preparation, responsibilities, and experiences that come with pursuit of a career in teaching. This initiative provides UNC System institutions with a unique opportunity to showcase the work of their respective educator preparation program and provides high school students with an immersive experience that includes an introduction to college-level coursework, instruction on relevant education topics, interaction with education faculty members, and helpful information about teacher preparation and licensure requirements. This opportunity also serves as a valuable recruitment tool for potential candidates of teacher education programs.
