A 4010 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Directs DOE to establish advertising campaign to attract candidates to teaching and education support professions; appropriates $1 million.

This bill directs New Jersey's Department of Education (DOE) to create a multimedia advertising campaign promoting teaching and education support careers as engaging and rewarding. The campaign must highlight available scholarships, student loan programs, and target recruitment efforts toward underrepresented racial groups and high-demand fields like special education, STEM, and bilingual education. It appropriates $1 million - funded from federal American Rescue Plan Act (ARP) funds - to implement the campaign across digital, TV, radio, and print media. The policy aims to directly support the DOE's recruitment goals for educators and education support professionals.
