See how our state’s numbers compares across the country.


In 2014, 80 percent of Americans polled agreed that teachers should achieve board certification in addition to being licensed to practice, similar to to professions like law and medicine.

Forty-eight more Arizona teachers received their National Board Certification, bringing the total number of Arizona teachers certified to 1,209. Compare that number to Utah’s 242 or Indiana’s 169.

NBCTs are advancing their profession through leadership roles. According to the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards:

  • More than half of NBCTs are working as team leaders

  • More than a third are department chairs

  • 15 percent are staff developers and coaches
