Arcadia Unified School District (AUSD) Teacher Induction Program

Teacher Induction Program

AUSD Teacher Induction Program prides itself on providing a rigorous and robust individualized program based on the needs of each candidate. Mentors and candidates work collaboratively to identify a learning path based on a self-assessment of the candidate’s needs. In creating this individualized plan, mentors and candidates select from a broad range of professional development opportunities aligned to the California Standards for the Teaching Profession (CSTP).
