We currently have some basic requirements for those that mentor student teachers, but are there ways to encourage mentors to have acquired strong instructional practices or coaching methods (Instructional Coaching Endorsement), etc.

Rethinking the role of teacher requires rethinking the role of admin. Also, there are schools with teachers who lead from the classroom. Teachers stay in multi-faceted, rich careers when they have agency. Collaborative Leadership is the key!

There could be advocacy in helping HS student pursuing education careers to earn an associate's degree in HS as block credit.  This would shorten their bachelor's completion time post HS.  Some HS in PA already have very robust programs that could easily be replicated for education majors specifically.

So much research on why teachers leave and why they stay. Failure of imagination is a problem. The pull toward status quo is strong.

More differentiation between advanced certification programs and initial certification programs by PDE. Policies shouldn't always apply across the board. For example, the Common Ground Framework and School Safety training. Candidates pursuing advanced degrees already have demonstrated competency in these areas through their initial licensure programs or professional development in schools they are already working in. It is difficult to incorporate all of these new requirements into shorter advanced certification programs.
