Family and consumer sciences (FCS) teachers are frequently changing programs to meet the needs of society and their local communities. Preparation for FCS teachers undergoes the same evolution. Teaching standards in family and consumer sciences prepare teachers for the challenges of the classroom. The need to respond to a changing environment prompted teacher educators to review and update the National Standards for Teachers of Family and Consumer Sciences. Standards and competencies were reviewed in teams of stakeholders with justified responses. Changes reflect two new standards, Wellness and Laboratory Management, alignment with Family, Career, and Community Leaders of America (FCCLA), InTASC standards, edTPA assessments, 21st Century Skills, and career and technical education frameworks. Anticipated uses of the Standards cover a range of possibilities from program development and assessment to informing professional development plans
