Presented by Dr. Cherrissa Gibson, Assistant Superintendent of Human Resources & Professional Development, Pennsbury School District, Fallsington, PA and Julia Becich, Executive Director of Human Resources, Lake Zurich Community Unit School District 95, Lake Zurich, IL
Moderated by Dr. Kristie Jackson, Senior Learning Strategist, BloomBoard, Phoenix, AZ
Every year, school districts rely on substitutes, emergency-certified teachers, paraprofessionals and other support staff to keep classrooms running. These employees often begin as short-term staffing solutions—but with the right pathway and support, they can become a district’s most promising source of future teachers.
In this webinar, district HR leaders will share how they are identifying talented employees already working in their schools and helping them become fully certified teachers. Panelists will discuss how they determine which employees are ready for advancement, remove common barriers to certification, secure funding and provide the support candidates need to complete their programs successfully.
Participants will leave with practical ideas for turning today’s staffing solutions into a more reliable, sustainable teacher pipeline—one built around people who already know their students, schools and communities.
We’ll explore:
-
Which employee groups offer the greatest potential for teacher advancement
-
How districts identify and recruit strong internal candidates
-
Ways to remove barriers such as cost, scheduling, and unpaid student teaching
-
How HR teams can support candidates and monitor progress
-
What districts have learned from launching and expanding their own programs

Are you ready to strengthen your substitute teacher pipeline for the new school year? This session focuses on practical, data-backed recruitment tactics that actually work. We will explore how to identify target audiences, utilize digital tools for outreach and highlight your district’s unique culture to win over top talent.
