中途,肯塔基州。 -中途岛大学宣布与肯塔基州的五个学区达成协议，为寻求成为肯塔基州教师的个人提供选项9计划。 教育专业标准委员会（EPSB）于2023年6月16日星期五批准了这些计划。 五个学区包括：

• 哈里森县学校
• 亨利郡学校
• 普拉斯基县学校
• 斯宾塞县学校
• 特林布尔县学校

“Adding Option 9 partnerships allows us to assist school districts with training teachers and filling teaching vacancies quickly,” said Dr. Faye Deters, Chair, Midway University Department of Teacher Education. “As an established teacher education program, it was important for us to set up partnerships such as this to be able to provide the vital educational training and support needed at this time. Each district sets their priorities and needs for their Option 9 plan, and we work with them on this effort.”

Midway University offers teacher education bachelor’s degrees at the elementary, middle, and high school level. 我们的课程面向在校学生或在线学生，为学生提供灵活性。 

选项9是获得教师证书的快速替代途径。 这种快速的各大博彩论坛途径可以在三个学年内获得学士学位和初步各大博彩论坛。 这条路线要求学院或大学与各大博彩论坛地区或一组地区合作开发各大博彩论坛项目，其中包括辅助专业人员/住院医师部分，并利用经验丰富的教师提供指导和指导。 Though this route requires a candidate to be employed in a classified position while completing coursework, it does not allow the candidate to serve as a teacher while enrolled in the route. 要担任教师，个人必须持有教师证书。 The Option 9 alternative route only provides for initial certification once the candidate completes the bachelor’s degree and certification assessments.
