ABOUT AAEE: Comprised of college/university career center staff and education department faculty, school district human resources and building administrators, and members of other education-related organizations, the American Association for Employment in Education is a key organization for building networks to recruit teachers. For 80+ years, AAEE has been providing members with direct access to resources and networking opportunities with colleagues—all focused upon the highest standards in educator preparation, recruitment, hiring, and retention.

Prepared and published annually, the AAEE Educator Supply and Demand Report is a nationally-recognized initiative and benchmark report.

• Surveys were collected between September 21, 2022 and March 31, 2023.

• The initial email invitation with a link to complete the online survey was sent to the list provided by AAEE on September 21, 2022. Reminder invitations were sent at varying times and days.

• Reminder invitations were not sent to email addresses that were returned as invalid or belonging to those who had completed the survey or indicated their refusal to participate.

• 414 surveys were completed. o 176 colleges/universities (6.2% margin of error using a 90% confidence level) o 238 school districts (5.4% margin of error)

Study Highlights Both colleges/universities as well as school districts were asked to evaluate demand for educators by rating 65 fields of study as having CONSIDERABLE SHORTAGE, SOME SHORTAGE, SOME SURPLUS, CONSIDERABLE SURPLUS of qualified applicants or BALANCED between applicants and positions. ✓ Overall, there was agreement between colleges/universities and school districts on more than half of the fields, 44 of the 65 (68%). ✓ Nearly two-thirds of the fields were reported as having some level of shortage by both colleges/universities and school districts, 59 by colleges/universities and 62 by school districts. Forty-three were identified as having some level of shortage by both groups. ✓ CONSIDERABLE SHORTAGE: Of the 65 fields listed, 23 were reported as having considerable shortage by colleges/universities while school districts noted considerable shortage in 34 fields. Twenty of the fields that were identified by colleges/universities as having a considerable shortage were also identified by school districts. ✓ SOME SHORTAGE: Colleges/Universities identified 36 fields as having some shortages while school districts identified 28 fields with some shortage. They were in agreement on 23 fields. ✓ SOME SURPLUS: No fields were reported as having some surplus by either colleges/universities or school districts. ✓ CONSIDERABLE SURPLUS: No fields were reported as having considerable surplus by either colleges/universities or school districts.

Enrollment in degree-seeking programs was more likely to have decreased in traditional, M.Ed./MAT/5th year programs, or TESOL programs than in alternative certificates/licensure or doctoral programs. At the same time, about 1 in 4 teachers hired in the past year did not have traditional preparation. The most-cited reason given for this was that there was a lack of traditional candidates applying.

On average, colleges/universities reported that 91% of their graduates find full-time teaching positions after graduation, while 9% find part-time positions. In addition, it was noted that decreases in funding that school districts receive was a challenge by 82% of responding school districts, with 39% indicating it is a Big Challenge.

• The further to the right a program appears in the grid, the higher the demand is for new educators in that field.

• 26 programs are far out of alignment where demand exceeds supply.

• Programs in cells with no shading are in alignment, balanced between supply and demand (6 of 65 programs). ✓ Prospects for employment are best for future educators in the fields appearing in the light red-shaded cell to the lower-right of the grid, where demand appears stronger than supply. ✓ Fields in cells shaded in red have somewhat better prospects for employment than most. ✓ Prospects for employment are most challenging for those in the green-shaded cell in the upper-left of the grid, where supply exceeds demand.

School Districts Teacher Preparation ✓ On average, 25% of the teachers hired in the past year do not have traditional preparation, either being hired with nontraditional preparation or as an emergency hire. Rural (25%) and Urban (31%) districts are more likely to have hired teachers without traditional preparation in the last year. ✓ The lack of traditional candidates and shortage of education majors in colleges drives the need to hire teachers without traditional preparation.

Question: Approximately what percentage of the teachers hired in the past year have: Traditional preparation – College/University coursework plus completed licensure; Non-traditional preparation – alternative certification programs, subject matter experts without pedagogy, temporary or provisional certification; Emergency hires – without licensure or background in teaching?
