Early Career Teacher Support Portal

KEEP

Kansas Early Career Teacher Support Portal


We know that turnover + early attrition=a teacher shortage.   The goal of KEEP is to increase the retention of early career teachers by providing support, resources, and online training to teachers.  The KEEP Educator Learning Portal is a work in progress and will continue to be as content, courses, podcasts and checklists are uploaded and updated.  The KEEP portal is hosted by Moodle and requires a username and password.  When creating a new account, an email with registration instructions will be sent to the email address provided.

Recruitment Updates and Reminders

KEEB will soon be undergoing minor changes to incorporate new and improved search methods.  In the future applicants will be searchable by region and endorsement.  New codes for job status updates will also be included.  KEEB reminds account holders to update job status as positions are filled.
