Gov. Josh Shapiro's administration says it has in cut wait lists, backlogs, and wait times by the thousands for different government approvals and services in Pennsylvania.
To help ease one of the challenges to begin teaching, the Department of Education was able to cut application wait times down from 10 weeks to one to three weeks, the department announced in July. The department hired four new full-time employees, streamlined the teacher certification website, and now allows teacher applicants to track their application as it progresses, according to the department.
