certification

For decades, teaching has required a certification that can take months to earn, followed by supervised, classroom volunteer hours which can make life rough on some who need to make a living. I heard that young adults that are pursuing educational degrees are being asked to take over classrooms right now because of the shortage.

The students in the welding classes at the College of Southern Idaho have been concerned for the past two weeks if they would actually be able to get their certification upon graduation.  The two certified welding instructors at CSI, Kent Parish and Juan Martinez,  have been on paid administrative leave since early this month.
