North Carolina Center for the Advancement of Teaching
Created in 1985, the North Carolina Center for the Advancement of Teaching (NCCAT) provides professional development for educators. NCCAT's main campus is located in Cullowhee, North Carolina, with a second campus on Ocracoke Island.
==History==
The 1983 North Carolina Teacher of the Year, Jean Powell of Clinton, North Carolina was an invited guest speaker to the North Carolina Commission on Education for Economic Growth. Powell told the commission that North Carolina should create a place where teachers could go to become enthusiastic about learning again and could pass this enthusiasm on to their students. "To attract and retain the best teachers, we must find a way to enhance their self-worth, pride of accomplishment, and enthusiasm," she said.
The commission liked Powell's idea. The Chancellor of Western Carolina University, H.F. Robinson, was appointed to head a planning committee. In 1985 the NC General Assembly established NCCAT as part of the University of North Carolina system. The Center was modeled after the Aspen Institute.〔Reforming Educators: Teachers, Experts, and Advocates, Samuel Mitchell, pp 44-46〕 Operations began in 1986 on the campus of Western Carolina University and in 1990 a new facility was constructed for the NCCAT in Cullowhee. A board of trustees representing all of the state's educational districts governs the center. NCCAT's campus on Ocracoke Island, North Carolina, is a former U.S. Coast Guard station. The Ocracoke campus will make NCCAT programs more accessible to teachers who live and work in the eastern part of the state.
