The NCCAT Mission: A Goal of Excellence for Education Statewide
NCCAT’s mission is to keep high-quality teachers in the classroom, advancing teaching beyond that of a simple job to an art form and a profession. By renewing their love for teaching, and improving the quality and enthusiasm of the teachers themselves, NCCAT ultimately improves student engagement in learning and academic achievement.
NCCAT’s vision is to build and sustain great teaching in North Carolina as teachers explore their profession more deeply, examine and challenge their ideas, and engage their intellectual curiosity and creative thinking through stimulating scholarly subjects.
NCCAT helps to retain the most caring, highly qualified, and skilled teachers necessary to positively impact the quality of public education in North Carolina. Dedicated to enriching the professional lives of our state’s public school teachers, NCCAT provides support for the entire spectrum of their teaching career.
