The Georgia Teacher Alternative Preparation Program® (Georgia
TAPP) is a classroom-based teacher preparation option for
individuals who have the basic qualifications to teach early
childhood, middle-grades, secondary or P-12 education but
have not completed a teacher preparation program. The program
is not intended to replace regular college teacher education
programs. It is, instead, an alternative option for individuals
who hold a bachelor's degree or higher from an accredited institute, but who did not complete
teacher education preparation requirements as part of their degree programs.
Georgia TAPP seeks to equip teacher-candidates with the skills
to ensure a reasonable expectation of initial success in their
classrooms, and to put in place a supervised internship/induction
program that will help them move toward subsequent mastery
of teaching.
