Kentucky Teacher Internship Program

The Kentucky Teacher Internship Program was designed to offer support to new teachers and encourage a culture of continuous professional growth. Using the New Teacher Standards adopted by Kentucky's Education Professional Standards Board (EPSB) in 1993, KTIP facilitates the transition from teacher preparation through induction. A three-member committee comprised of the principal, resource teacher, and university-appointed teacher educator guide and assess the intern’s progress throughout the first year of teaching. The principal serves as chair of the committee.

KTIP/TPA Revisions

EDTL student

While adhering to basic precepts in place since 1985, the KTIP process and training have been altered to accommodate mandated changes effective with school year 2008-09. The KTIP Teacher Performance Assessment (TPA) is a set of ten teaching tasks designed to provide opportunity for demonstration of Kentucky’s Teaching Standards. All resource teachers, administrators, and university-appointed teacher educators will need to be retrained in the revised process unless trained previously in 2008.
