12. Most teacher education programs have units on management now.

It was included in the 1992 INTASC principles for teacher training (NCATE, CCSSO). It's not always a stand alone class, but it's often in either the educational psychology class or clinical training. The topic was included for teacher training long before the 90's though.

No matter what training the teacher has, they can't always change the school or district values that make classroom management something beyond the individual teacher. Only the administration, the community, and the faculty together can create a consistent system so that management planning works.
