The Graduate Council approved a change to this program during the academic year. Please refer to the Catalog Addendum for more information. 

 

The graduate academic certificate for principal preparation consists of seven courses that address skills and knowledge needed for successful school leadership. The courses in this program are offered as part of the Accelerated Online Program with all classes in the 8 week format except for the internship in educational administration, which is a full semester. Candidates learn about curriculum and instruction; education law; resource management; differentiation to promote the success of all students; approaches for working well with parents and the community; and methods for building human capacity and a positive school culture. The courses include many opportunities for practical application, and the internship in educational administration gives the candidates hands-on experience in school leadership and management.
