Requires teacher education programs to provide credit hours and licensed teachers to participate in professional development regarding social and emotional learning and in social work

Summary

The bill would make teacher‑education programs that receive state aid include at least three credit hours each in social‑emotional learning (SEL) and social work, and would require all licensed teachers to complete in‑service training on those topics each year. It also creates an advisory board to guide educator preparation and links the SEL/social work training to substitute‑teacher certification. The measure did not pass.
