U.S. & AZ Constitution Coursework Reimbursement

Pima JTED offers 60% reimbursement to its teachers in order to satisfy the deficiencies on your CTE teaching certificate for US Constitution and AZ Constitution courses. This benefit is extended to the CTE teachers in high schools within JTED’s member districts as well as Central Campus teachers.

For the 23-24 school year, instructors have the opportunity to submit a Pre-Approval Application (Step 1) anytime between July 1, 2023, and May 1, 2024. Teachers will receive approval within a week and then may register for and take one or both courses anytime between July 1, 2023, and May 31, 2024. Instructors must complete the course and then submit Step 2 of their Reimbursement Application, along with the unofficial transcript and proof of payment, no later than June 6, 2024, in order to be reimbursed within the same fiscal year.
