This study provided a description of teacher induction practices in international Christian schools that are members of the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI). Teacher induction is seen as a means of both training new teachers and assisting in teacher retention. While much research has been conducted on teacher induction in public schools in the U.S. and abroad, a gap exists in research relating to teacher induction in the international Christian school context. The overarching finding was that comprehensive teacher induction is not a widespread practice in international Christian schools. Based on the findings, the researcher made nine suggestions for professional practice and six suggestions for further research.
