Attract & Prepare​

Attracting future educators to Ohio's talent pipeline is of utmost importance. Encouraging students and other potential candidates to consider education as a profession requires an intentional approach to attraction and preparation. This includes preparing future candidates for the realities of the profession and preparing them to be learner-ready from day one. ​

Recruit & Hire

A great hire is one of the best investments an organization can make, but poor hires can detract from student learning. To ensure that each child in Ohio has an excellent educator, districts and schools need to refine their recruitment and hiring practices to address current and future staffing needs.​

Support & Grow​

Developing and managing talent is an art and a science. It focuses attention on staff who are already part of the organization. The initial stages include socializing the newest staff, and subsequent stages build on early foundations with individualized opportunities to learn, grow, and lead throughout employees' careers.​

Engage & Reward

Educators want to know that they are valued and heard. A culture that engages stakeholder voices, maintains transparency, and fosters collaboration is a key element to success. What's more, recognizing exemplary service encourages talented individuals to enter and remain in the profession.​
