Overview

The Comprehensive Educator Induction Program (CEIP) is a four-year partnership with all novice and new educators to the state of Delaware which provides ongoing professional learning opportunities to meet the Delaware Department of Education and Christina School District license and certification requirements.
The purpose of the CEIP is to strengthen all educators' capacity throughout our school district community. We support all educators with understanding school district policies and procedures, assessing and reflecting on professional performance, and developing an individualized growth plan to enhance professional practice.
Our program is comprised of a CEIP Site Coordinator, Lead Mentors, and Mentors.

The CEIP Site Coordinator is responsible for the implementation, integrity, and fidelity of the program. The coordinator ensures program requirements are met, addresses district challenges, supports Lead Mentors and Mentors, and serves as the liaison between Christina School District and the Delaware Department of Education.
The CEIP Lead Mentors are responsible for the school-level implementation of the program. Lead Mentors are trained by the Delaware Department of Education and serve as a resource to Mentors for supporting all novice educators.
The CEIP Mentors are responsible for providing individualized support for novice educators in Years One and Two of the program. Mentors serve as the bridge-builder who help all novice educators to build a deeper understanding of their professional practice, facilitates professional learning, builds and maintain trustworthy relationships, and motivates all educators. Mentors also conduct informal (non-evaluative) observations of educators and provide meaningful feedback to the novice educator.
