Share your expertise at the AP Reading.

For more than 50 years, AP has partnered with college faculty to prepare students for success in higher education. By participating in the AP Reading, faculty help ensure that AP Exams continue to measure a student's ability to master college-level work.

Join more than 10,000 college faculty and experienced AP teachers who convene annually to score free-response questions from students around the world.

We are looking for expertise in European History. Each summer the College Board hires European Historians to participate in the reading of AP US History exams. AP readers receive an honorarium and reimbursement for travel expenses, lodging and meals during the 7-day reading, which will be held this year in Kansas City, Missouri. The reading, which brings together 1,200 college and high school faculty, also provides an excellent professional development opportunity, and includes evening lectures from distinguished scholars, and opportunities to share teaching strategies for the US survey. College readers should have recent experience teaching the European history survey or its equivalent. An online application process includes submission of a CV and recent syllabus. AP Readers receive an honorarium and reimbursement for travel expenses, lodging and meals. Approved AP Readers do not need to reapply.

APPLICATIONS ARE NOW BEING ACCEPTED!

 "The AP Reading is the single best professional development experience I have. I personally value the experience because it helps me refine my pedagogical skills and strategies and because it's a communal, morale-boosting experience."
