International School of Sweden recruits CEHD teacher licensure students

For the past two years, CEHD Career Services has collaborated with the International School of Sweden (IES Sweden) to recruit CEHD teacher candidates to work at their 17 schools throughout Sweden. Representatives from IES Sweden have come to campus in the spring to interview teacher candidates, and several UMN students have received job offers. Robin Kirk Johansson, a principal with IES Sweden, says they are impressed with the UMN teacher licensure program because of its emphasis on learning communities and the teacher candidates’ full-year placement in schools. Success stories of some of the students who have been hired at IES Sweden are posted on the Career Services blog.
