The teaching position has always been called the "iron rice bowl", which not only has a stable income, superior welfare benefits, a high-quality working environment, but more importantly, there are two holidays every year, which makes many social "hit workers" envious.
It is precisely for these reasons that in recent years, as a "pass" for the education industry, the popularity of the teacher qualification certificate has only increased, and the number of applicants has been gradually rising, and there is even a trend of development towards the "general examination" such as level four or six.
According to relevant data, as of September 21, 1.91 million people have successfully passed this "threshold" in only three quarters, an increase of 28.7% compared with the whole year of 20 years.
Candidates are crowded together to apply for the teacher qualification certificate out of two kinds of psychology
Except for Xinjiang, Tibet and Inner Mongolia, which do not participate in the unified examination, the current arrangement of the UGC examination in most provinces is "two examinations a year", which is held once in March in the first half of the year and once in November in the second half of the year, and the written examination stage will be increased or reduced according to the level of candidates' application.
Due to the many opportunities and restrictions of the UGC examination, the competitive pressure is not small every time, but compared with the social people, college students are still the "main force". So why do students get together on the UGC exam?
In fact, for teacher training students, whether they can successfully get the industry "access permit" during college is related to the difficulty of their employment and their career planning in the next 1-3 years.
After all, with the advent of the double reduction policy, many education and training institutions are repeatedly jumping on the edge of "closing the door", and even head institutions such as New Oriental and Ape Counseling are actively seeking new directions.
In this way, teacher training students do not have the "bottom" position, they can only strive to "career editor", and if they want to gain the favor of public schools, having a teacher qualification certificate is the most basic condition.
In addition, from the perspective of non-teacher training students, nowadays, the "difficulty of finding a job" has been illuminated into reality, and it is really difficult to find a high-paying and corresponding job, and taking one more teacher qualification certificate means that there will be one more way out in the future.
The UGC is "fragrant", but it is not so easy to take the exam
If we only look at the official data, we will feel that the UGC is particularly easy to test, after all, 1.91 million people have obtained the certificate in 9 months.
However, from a practical point of view, it is still difficult for candidates to successfully obtain a teaching certificate at one time, otherwise the Ministry of Education will not stipulate that the results will be valid within two years in the case of only 3-4 subjects.
This is mainly because the pass rate set by the UGC every year is only about 30%, and the written test results will be divided into two types: paper score and report score, which greatly increases the possibility of "failure".
In other words, even if the candidates in the 150 full score of the scale score, the score reached the passing line, but in the case of the score of the inner volume, the scale score is converted into a report score of 120 points according to a certain proportion of points through the formula, there will be 68, 69 and other head-scratching results, and students can only choose World War II.
However, with the development of education, the Ministry of Education has also issued a relevant notice, indicating that some college students can be exempted from the UGC, so come and see if you meet the requirements?
These 3 types of college students can be exempted from the UGC, and it is more "easy" to become a teacher in the future.
▶ Publicly-funded teacher training students
As publicly-funded teacher training students admitted in advance batches, they not only have tuition fees, accommodation costs, and living expenses borne by the state, but also bring their own teaching certificates and preparations after graduation" "leaving the factory", which can be described as very enviable.
However, if there is a harvest, there must be a payment, whether it is a subordinate or a provincial teacher training student, before enrolling, they will sign an agreement to return to the place of origin of the student for a 6-year teaching activity after graduation, even if the student has a graduate school plan. In addition, if the student repents in the middle of the way or leaves the post without authorization within 6 years, he or she also needs to compensate for liquidated damages.
▶ Master of Education
Like publicly-funded teacher training students, there are also graduate students in education who can be exempted from the examination for teaching certificates" "out of the factory", and the documents of the relevant departments clearly show that even if they are not from the teacher training profession, as long as they can obtain a master's degree in education, they can obtain this "welfare".
▶Some institutions joined the pilot reform of the UGC examination 17 years ago
In fact, 15 years ago, the "baby bumps" of normal colleges and universities did not need to work hard to take the qualification certificate, as long as they could pass the school audit before graduation.
But now this situation has ushered in a change, from the notice issued by the relevant departments, as long as the institutions joined the pilot reform of the UGC examination 17 years ago, and the conditions and quality of the school are both up to standard, they can start from the 22nd graduates to identify the qualifications of primary and secondary school teachers without exams.
Exam-free UGC does not mean that students can relax
The author would like to remind the students here that although the above three types of college students can be exempted from the teaching certificate, it does not mean that there is no need to prepare for the examination, and everyone still has to pass the education and teaching ability assessment arranged by the school to obtain the certificate.
And the self-assessment of colleges and universities means that both the topic and the difficulty are more targeted, and the difficulty may not be reduced compared to the social examination, so it is recommended that students strive to improve their professional quality and strive to pass it at one time.
