Professional development
Demands on preK-12 educators are escalating due to changing societal and
technological cultures, combined with an increasingly diverse school
population. This certificate program is for experienced educators who are
interested in designing, implementing, and evaluating learning opportunities
for preK-12 educators and related staff.
Program highlights
Interdisciplinary study:
While the program is housed in the
Department of Educational Policy
and Administration, students
can choose elective courses from a variety of departments, including
the Department of Curriculum and Instruction, the Hubert H.
Humphrey School of Public Affairs, and the Department of Sociology.
Practical coursework:
Students design staff development processes and materials for
use in their own work contexts.
Professional development:
The program’s length (only 12-15 credits of required coursework) makes
it an ideal professional development opportunity for
teachers, administrators, and others involved in school improvement
initiatives.
