TRP Residents simultaneously complete graduate level coursework at UW-Madison and all licensure requirements to become certified special education teachers. TRP Residents are offered a generous living stipend and have access to additional financial support as UW-Madison graduate students. Residents agree to teach special education for three full school years in MPS after their Residency year. The ideal candidate will be passionate about working with and making a difference for students and have a high interest in investing in their own learning and in student learning.
