Welcome to our page for the TCS Beginning Teacher Support Program (BTSP).

Each teacher in his/her first 3 years in the profession carries the status of a beginning teacher and a Standard Professional I teaching license. At then successful conclusion of the 3-year induction period, the beginning teacher's license is converted to a Standard Professional II license. Completion of the Beginning Teacher Support Program requirements in one teaching area satisfies the Beginning Teacher Support Program requirement for all other teaching areas. Once a continuing license has been earned in one teaching area, additional teaching areas do not require a Beginning Teacher Support Program experience.
