InTASC (Interstate Teacher Assessment and Support Consortium)

The Interstate Teacher Assessment and Support Consortium (InTASC) is a group of educators and organizations aimed at improving teacher quality across the United States. They developed a set of standards that outline the essential knowledge, skills, and dispositions teachers should possess to support student learning effectively. These standards guide teacher preparation programs, assessments, and professional development, ensuring that teachers are well-equipped to meet diverse student needs and foster successful learning environments. InTASC’s framework ultimately seeks to enhance educational outcomes by promoting high standards for teaching practice nationwide.
