Teacher Performance Assessment Consortium

The Teacher Performance Assessment Consortium (TPAC) is an initiative aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of teachers in training. It offers a standardized way to assess teaching candidates through a series of performance tasks that demonstrate their knowledge and skills in real classroom situations. By using authentic assessments, TPAC helps ensure that new teachers are prepared to meet the needs of their students and contribute positively to the education system. This approach emphasizes practical teaching abilities rather than just theoretical knowledge, ultimately aiming to improve teacher quality and student learning outcomes.
