Press Release: Idaho’s Teacher Shortage Program Persists
In the state of Idaho, individuals who want to find a teaching position can find a teaching position. A small number of completers take jobs out of state as several of our programs are available online and have been attractive to those who live out of state. The remaining completers without an Idaho license choose not to apply for licensure or secure an employment contract with a public school in Idaho.
