Take One! Fees Policy
The Wyoming National Board Certification Initiative recognizes the value of accomplished teachers in Wyoming classrooms and schools. To increase the number of National Board Certified Teachers in Wyoming, the Initiative, as part of its support of active candidates, will pay up to $200 of the initial Take One! assessment fee through private and public dollars received from the Ellbogen Foundations, the State Legislature and Federal Subsidy.
Candidates who elect to accept this financial support agree to submit one complete entry to within the timeline set by the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards. All candidates will sign this policy as a statement of their understanding and acceptance of these conditions. Financial support will not be granted until this requirement is met.
In the event that you are unable to complete the stated requirements, you have the option to formally withdraw through the National Board of Professional Teaching Standards prior to the submission of your entry. Withdrawal must be completed within the timelines set by the National Board. A timely withdrawal will relieve you of your responsibilities to the Initiative. However, should you not undertake a timely withdrawal or complete all assessment requirements and your status is therefore reported by the National Board as “Incomplete” or “No Attempt”, reimbursement in the amount of $200 to the Wyoming National Board Certification Initiative will be required by February 1, 2014.
The Initiative reserves the right to deny any further financial support when candidates do not complete all of the requirements of the process as outlined.
I have read and understand the policy above and agree to meet all of the stated expectations for each year that I am a candidate.
