AMERICUS — Recruiters from school systems throughout the state of Georgia will be on hand at the 2022 Teacher Career Fair sponsored by Georgia Southwestern State University’s College of Education and Chattahoochee-Flint RESA.

The fair will be held March 4 from 10 a.m. until 1 p.m. in the intramural gym located in the Georgia Southwestern Storm Dome at 800 GSW State University Drive in Americus.

Certified educators and those eligible for teaching certification for the 2022-23 school year are encouraged to participate

In addition, there is an alternative pathway — Georgia Teacher Academy for Preparation and Pedagogy (GaTAPP) — for individuals who hold a bachelor’s degree or higher from an accredited institution, who did not complete a traditional teacher education degree program, and who want to transition into the teaching profession. Chattahoochee-Flint RESA will have representatives available to discuss the GaTAPP program.
