Description

The New York City Department of Education (NYCDOE), on behalf of the Division of Human Resources, Office of Teacher Recruitment and Quality, is seeking proposals from accredited private institutions of higher education, experienced in providing teacher certification programs that result in producing high quality teachers for NYCDOE public schools. A separate solicitation will be released for services from public institutions from the City University of New York (CUNY) and the State University of New York (SUNY) systems. Since the inception of the New York City Teaching Fellows (NYCTF) program in 2000, the NYCDOE has worked collaboratively with vendors to prepare alternate route teachers for public schools throughout the city.

Over the years, new programs have launched covering a variety of subject areas, based on the needs of the NYCDOE, and allowed for different entry points into the teaching profession. Moving forward, the NYCDOE seeks to continue to prepare alternate route teachers, while also providing space for new initiatives, innovative practices, and opportunities for vendors to support additional teacher preparation programs through both alternate and traditional route services. The NYCDOE will partner with accredited institutions of higher education that offer teacher certification programs and bachelor and master degrees in the field of education.

All programs must be capable of providing relevant and responsive coursework focused on outcomes in teacher practice and be delivered in an efficient and flexible manner suited for participants who teach full-time while enrolled in coursework. Detailed service description and requirements are provided in the Request for Proposal (RFP) solicitation. This RFP contains three (3) service components.

Component 1 is independent and Components 2 and 3 are dependent. Component 1: Alternative Certification Programs for Teacher Candidates Component 2: Supplementary, Extension, and Advanced Certification Programs for Teachers Component 3: NYC Pipeline Initiatives Traditional Pathways for Teacher Candidates IMPORTANT: Vendors have the option to propose for Component 1 independent of Components 2 or 3. Vendors who propose for Component 2 must also propose for a second Component, either Component 1 or Component 3.

Vendors who propose for Component 3 must also propose for a second Component, either Component 1 or Component 2. Vendors also have the option to propose for all three components. Proposals for a dependent component (Components 2 or 3) will not be considered without proposals for a second component.

The NYCDOE will enter into requirements contract agreements with multiple vendors that meet the needs and specifications of this open-ended RFP. The awarded contracts will be for a term of six (6) years. It is anticipated that services will commence on or about June 2019.
