Southwest Mississippi World-Class Teaching Initiative
Jackson State University (JSU) is home to one of six World Class Teaching Programs that support Mississippi teachers as they seek National Board Certification.

The assessment is based on high standards developed by the National Board for 专业 Teaching Standards. The standards-based assessment requires candidates to create a classroom-based portfolio and complete a one-day written assessment.
