Education Advisory Board:

Each year a core group of clinical educators in our area serves as a liaison between K-12 Education and the Hanover College Educator Preparation Program. This body meets twice a semester as a group and reviews Educator Preparation Program data and makes recommendations for changes to the Program based upon the data and assessments as well as validating the instruments used by the EPP to evaluate teacher candidate performance.
