The Central Carolina Teaching Initiative (CCTI) is an accelerated alternative NC teacher licensure program. The CCTI program offers recent college graduates and mid-career professionals who hold Bachelor degrees in non-teaching areas the opportunity to become fully licensed North Carolina teachers. CCTI coursework is administered through a blended model of face-to-face classes and online modules. CCTI is an NCDPI approved Educator Preparation Program (EPP) for those who would like to earn their license through the Residency Pathway. CCTI is available for teachers who work in a North Carolina Public School. Participants complete all program requirements while teaching full-time in their districts. CCTI was initiated in 2016 by the Superintendents of the Central Carolina Regional Service Alliance (CCRESA).
