Upper Valley Educators Institute company information, Employees & Contact Information

For over 50 years, the Upper Valley Educators Institute has been a national leader in preparing adults for careers as teachers and school leaders. The UVEI teacher and principal certification model differs from a traditional school of education program by reversing the percentage of time traditionally allotted to academic theory and actual practice. UVEI also offers its own experiential Masters Programs in education and school leadership through a partnership with the Upper Valley Graduate School of Education. A focus on outcomes and the achievement of competencies - what an educator must know and be able to do - is at the heart of the UVEI approach. Teacher Internship Program: At UVEI, adult college graduates become certified teachers through an intensive, 10-month internship program. Each UVEI teacher intern enters with a strong academic background, as well as career and life experiences to share with students. Principal Internship Program: The goal of UVEI's principal program is to attract into the profession individuals with maturity, a strong academic background, breadth of experience, leadership potential, and a commitment to a transformative model of leading for learning. Masters Degree Programs: UVEI offers a Masters in Education with a Concentration in Teaching or School Leadership. Credit for successfully-achieved UVEI competencies are applied to a candidate's masters degree.
