The University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC) received a $323,084 Project Grant under the Department of Education's Institute of Education Sciences (IES) Education Research, Development and Dissemination program (CFDA 84.305) to use Maryland's Statewide Longitudinal Data System (SLDS) to strengthen and diversify the teacher workforce through high school to career pathways.
The grant supports UMBC's research activities in collaboration with the University of Maryland, College Park and the University of Maryland, Baltimore to: (1) assist in data cleaning and merging of the MLDS data, (2) conduct analyses on research questions related to teacher labor markets and workforce diversity, (3) interpret and disseminate the findings, and (4) organize annual stakeholder convenings to share results and prioritize future research. The project aims to provide policy implications for Maryland and national decision-makers on improving teacher preparation and career pathways.
