The Career Ladder Program has provided assistance to prospective teachers to pursue studies to become certified as teachers who are credentialed to teach English Language Learners in Rhode Island schools. The program has focused on participants from Southeast Asian and Latino communities. Participants have attended classes at RI colleges and universities, including the Community College of RI (CCRI), RI College (RIC), Providence College (PC), University of RI (URI), and Brown University.
The Career Ladder program has produced teachers of Math, Science, History, Spanish, English Literature, Elementary and Early Childhood Education, Special Ed, ESL Specialists, and Bilingual Educators, who are teaching in Providence, Woonsocket, Central Falls, Pawtucket, and the Rhode Island Training School.
