The population is terrible, the pay is not that good, and no reciprocity agreements are in place with the State of California so your California teacher certification is not honored in Nebraska. So who would want to teach in Nebraska?

Actually a lot of people. Nebraska is probably one of the easiest places to become a teacher due to lower teacher certification requirements. California really falls short when it comes to simplicity. Nebraska seems to understand that simplicity was the way to meet their teacher shortage problems and not do what California did which was to increase pay slightly while putting up a dozen more hoops that new teachers must jump through in order to become a certified teacher.

The next thing that Nebraska did was to put a free teach in Nebraska job portal website up. The site lets Nebraska teacher candidates search for a job, and also lets schools post a job vacancy. There are no clever bribes to try and get your email address and name in order for you to sign up. You just click on search for a job, select the zone area on the map, select what grade and type of education job you are looking for and click search. Up comes a ton of jobs with full contact information, instructions for applying, and everything else. Simplicity, simplicity, simplicity. Check it out at: http://www.nebraskaeducationjobs.com/
