Advanced Graduate Certificate Program
in Educational Leadership

Program Overview:

The Advanced Graduate Certificate Program in Educational Leadership has five program tracks, Educational Leadership (EDL) Traditional, Educational Leadership (EDL) On-line, School Building Leadership (SBL), School District Leadership (SDL), and School District Business Leadership (SDBL).

The EDL advanced graduate certificate program is offered both in a traditional (face-to-face) classroom setting or on-line. Completion of this program leads to dual certification on the building and district levels.

The SBL and the SDL advanced graduate certificate programs are designed to meet the needs of teachers who wish to enter the field of educational leadership at the building level or at the district level.

The SDBL advanced graduate certificate program is designed for students who have an MBA or other advanced management degree, but no educational experience or teaching license.

All programs require graduate level courses and a mentored experiential internship that meets the mandated requirements for certification.
