The Vocational Instructor Preparation (VIP) program is a systematic approach to the induction of new career–technical teachers and/or instructors into the teaching profession. It is designed to ensure that these new teachers achieve their potential during the period of special licensure—up to three years of initial employment of nondegree and noneducation-degree career–technical teachers.
