Master of Arts Pathway
To help teachers make a difference in their districts and communities, our innovative online Teacher Leadership Master of Arts degree offers graduate certificates that lead to the master’s. Our coursework threads reflective practices, content mastery and skill development throughout so that students can practice leadership skills as they engage with the curriculum. This program is offered entirely online and is organized around term-based asynchronous course work (course work completed at separate times) as well as synchronous formats (meeting virtually at the same time).
Graduate Certificate Pathway
To help teachers make a difference in their districts and communities, our innovative online Teacher Leadership program offers individual graduate certificates. Our coursework threads reflective practices, content mastery and skill development throughout so that students can practice leadership skills as they engage with the curriculum.
The Certificate Pathway is offered entirely online and is organized around self-paced asynchronous course work (course work completed at separate times) as well as synchronous formats for capstones (meeting virtually at the same time).
Certificate Pathways
To earn a certificate, students will take four courses in their chosen certificate area. Each certificate blends together three two-credit online courses with a synchronous capstone course held in the summer. These affordable certificates have been designed for educators looking to enhance their skills and capacities as classroom teachers and leaders and to make a difference in their schools and local communities. Students can choose to take classes and separately complete certificates without enrolling in the full MA program. However, if they wish to transfer into the Master of Arts in Teacher Leadership, they must do so before they have earned their 24th credit in the Teacher Leadership Program.
