Welcome to CalEPIC! Our mission is to work in trusted partnership with districts and educator preparation programs (EPPs) to support a diverse and thriving teaching workforce that can meet the needs of children who have often been traditionally underserved in schools, including students with disabilities, those who are Black, Latinx, LGBTQIA+, as well as those experiencing poverty.
We are passionate about enhancing the quality of teacher preparation, ensuring pathways into the profession are equitable, and promoting innovative approaches to school staffing. Our current focus is supporting California districts and EPPs as they work together to design more equitable and strategic residency models.
The development of CalEPIC is made possible with the generous support of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
