ABOUT THE TRAINING REQUIREMENTS

  • Colorado school districts are required to ensure all K-3 teachers complete evidence-based training in teaching reading as a result of changes to the Colorado READ Act in SB-19-199 (PDF).  HB21-1129 extends the previously approved deadline of January 31, 2022 to the beginning of the 2022-23 school year.

CDE will provide information for teachers to submit documentation that one of these training options met the hour, content, and assessment requirements. At this time, CDE anticipates that the documentation will be a part of a teachers' license.
