CERRA: An Overview
CERRA’s agenda is a comprehensive one that supports a variety of programs aimed to increase the number of
students in the education pipeline and to recruit and retain qualified, caring, and competent teachers for the state of
South Carolina. The Center’s primary target groups are middle (the ProTeam Program) and high school students
(the Teacher Cadet and Teaching Fellows Programs), college students, and adults interested in changing careers.
CERRA also targets groups of accomplished teachers through programs including mentoring, teacher leadership
and National Board Certification. The network of educators in CERRA’s programs overlaps in powerful ways to
increase the level of collaboration for recruitment, retention, and advancement of South Carolina educators.
