Burton School District Teacher Induction Program 

Completion Requirements 

The Burton School District Teacher Induction Program is two years in length and begins in the first year of teaching. The induction program is job-embedded and is focused on mentoring and support of the candidate’s growth in the CSTP. In order to complete the BSD teacher induction program candidates must: 

  • The candidate, with the help of the TIP mentor, must develop and implement an Individualized Learning Plan (ILP), which must address the California Standards for the Teaching Profession (CSTP) based on needs determined by the candidate and mentor and guided by the preliminary program transition plan/individualized development plan within the first 45 days of enrollment in the program. 
  • Candidates must complete 3 ILP inquiry cycles each program year for a total of 6 cycles for a 2 year induction program or 3 cycles for the early completion option pathway. 
  • Work with the TIP mentor for an average of not less than one hour per week on individualized support coordinated and/or provided by the TIP mentor. This is documented through the TIP mentor’s weekly logs.
