The Cooperating Teacher
Regulations promulgated by the Kentucky Education Professional Standards Board stipulate that in order to serve in a supervisory capacity the Cooperating Teacher must hold both a master’s degree and a current Kentucky teaching certificate and have a minimum of four years teaching experience including one year taught in the present school system immediately prior to being assigned a student teacher. The level of educational and professional experience required for supervision addresses issues of knowledge and skill related to teaching practice.
