A program designed to support you teaching long-term, at a cost lower than you think.

Relay’s unique 12 year partnership with AmeriCorps* means you don’t have to choose between a program that fits the budget and one that fits your teaching career.

You don’t have to sacrifice quality to keep your costs manageable.

You need clarity on funding options for the program that actually supports you.

Getting a Masters or certification in teaching is no trivial expense, and the wide range of pricing across different schools is confusing - and it shouldn’t be. It can feel safest to just choose the lowest cost program. But you might get what you (don’t) pay for…

On the surface, Relay’s program might seem out of reach. It’s a higher-quality program that actually improves your longevity as a teacher AND the impact you have with your students, with a price to match. But Relay has a few (not-so) secret options to make your tuition here the most affordable.
