Welcome to SDCOE Teacher Effectiveness and Preparation Educator Pathways

This resource is designed to provide guidance that will help support the  journey to becoming and growing as an educator. It is organized to provide resources based on any given starting point. 

The San Diego County Office of Education supports aspiring educators of all backgrounds and experiences in their exploration of and efforts toward a career in K-12 education, and it assists schools and districts as they continue to implement inclusive hiring and support practices. Together, we can both increase the candidate pool of educators from underrepresented groups to better reflect student demographics and inform the school cultures in which these educators will be an integral part.

To begin learning more about your pathway to an education career, check out the Pathways to Teaching Overview video and the My Experience stories. Then, scroll down to find the pathway to an education career based on your individual starting point.
