Teacher Education and Compensation Helps
1411.0103 Teacher Education and Compensation Helps (TEACH) scholarship program.--
(1) The Legislature finds that the level of early child care teacher education and training is a key predictor for determining program quality. The Legislature also finds that low wages for child care workers prevent many from obtaining increased training and education and contribute to high turnover rates. The Legislature therefore intends to help fund a program which links teacher training and education to compensation and commitment to the field of early childhood education.
(2) The Agency for Workforce Innovation may contract for the administration of the Teacher Education and Compensation Helps (TEACH) scholarship program, which provides educational scholarships to caregivers and administrators of early childhood programs, family day care homes, and large family child care homes.
(3) The agency shall adopt rules under ss. 120.536(1) and 120.54 as necessary to administer this section.
