Which Is Right for You?
Candidates who already possess a master's degree in education may complete the seven concentration courses in school administration and the supervised field experience to be eligible for the Preliminary Administrative Services Credential (Tier I). Students not holding a master's degree should enroll in the combined program leading to the Tier I Credential with a master's degree in school administration.
Interns participate in the administrative credential courses along with other candidates. Interns attend monthly half-day seminars to foster common challenges and mutual support.
Coursework is immediately applicable and a resource for the problem solving and decision making required in their current positions. Faculty who are practicing administrators and fieldwork mentors enrich the learning experience and offer a strong ethical approach to educational leadership.
