Toward a Qualified Teaching Profession

Mr. Fuller, Executive Secretary of the National Council of Chief State School Officers, is a member of a pioneering com miltee seeking a practical approach to the growing problem of accrediting teacher education. The proposals of this com mittee received thoughtful consideration in each of the eight recent regional con ferences sponsored by the National Com mission on Teacher Education and Pro fessional Standards. The five lay and professional groups represented in the committee are fostering further consid eration of the proposals. Since this sug gesled step is fraught with meaning for every teacher, the extended discussion of its implications is to be desired. Not only national, regional, and state, but local groups should anticipate receipt of more detailed information and should establish the proposals as the theme of future meet ings
