This book explains, summarizes, and interprets the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards' new Maintenance of Certificate (MOC) process. The MOC process replaces the former renewal process for National Board-Certified Teachers who want to maintain their certification beyond its original expiration date. MOC explores the teacher's professional growth since the time of original certification or one's last renewal. The book covers the scope of the process from beginning to end. Candidates will learn about the two Components they'll complete, developing their Professional Growth Experiences (PGE), connecting their video to a PGE, writing in the National Board style, and how to most efficiently use their instructions. The book explains and interprets the prompts candidates respond to show they have remained an accomplished teacher.
