The design of high-quality professional learning experiences for teachers, including access to four-year and graduate-level teacher preparation, is a complex and challenging issue in the Pacific region. The Pohnpei Partnership for the Improvement of Teaching is committed to focusing on the improvement of teaching (pre-service and in-service) at the state level.
Our partners include representatives from the College of Micronesia-FSM (COM-FSM), FSM National Department of Education (DOE) and the Pohnpei Department of Education (DOE).
