NBPTS is the definitive source of the highest standards and best practices for accomplished teaching, leading and learning. For a quarter century, we’ve set the bar for what it means to be a great teacher, and have provided the standards and framework needed to achieve that mark of distinction: the National Board Certified Teacher. Today, nearly 100,000 NBCTs reach approximately ten million students each year with exceptional learning experiences.

Our reinvigorated mission includes an array of programs, including our principal certification currently being piloted nationwide, to support continuous school improvement. At a time when the nation’s emphasis on educational improvement is at an all-time high, NBPTS is uniquely positioned to play a broad role in the transformation of America’s schools.

Great teachers are the single most important reason why students reach higher levels of student learning. To help grow great schools through accomplished teaching and educational leadership, donate now!
