All Montessori teachers at Chesapeake Montessori School were trained at an Association Montessori Internationale center. In order to earn the AMI Young Child (toddler) or Primary Diploma, a teacher must hold a Bachelor's Degree and then undergo a year of extensive training. To earn an AMI Advanced Diploma (for ages 6 to 12) a teacher must study the Primary level and undergo a year of additional study at an AMI center. Most Montessori teachers also hold masters degrees.
