Project Details
Description
Dutch VET faces teacher shortages and a relatively high attrition rate among second career teachers (SCTs). This project examines SCTs' transition into teaching through an Alternative Certification Programme (ACP) using the lens of professional identity development. The project aims to understand the development of VET SCTs' teacher identity during ACP, considering personal and prior professional identities, and other factors that facilitate or hinder identity development. Findings will inform teacher education programs in how to enhance professional identity development. That is, professional identity development significantly contributes to teacher retention in education.
