Pi Lambda Theta is the most selective national honor society of educators and a contributing body to quality assurance in education. It employs its standing and reach to advocate for accomplished teaching and standards-based professional learning. PLT extends membership to students and professionals who satisfy academic eligibility requirements, however those requirements are waived for National Board-certified teachers and recipients of any of the widely recognized awards enrolled in PLT’s Project Excellence.
