College of Education and Behavioral Sciences
The Teacher Leadership Certificate is a 16 credit program designed to support teachers’ efforts to improve teaching and learning in schools. Participants will take four courses organized to broaden their perspectives of leadership and how it functions within a school setting. Additionally, participants will develop leadership strategies and capacities to engage in collaborative leadership with peers, community and administrators.
Target participants for this effort will be practicing teachers (P-12) interested in site-based leadership activities focused on improving teaching and learning.
The delivery model for this certificate program will be an on-line, cohort-based structure with a design that allows peer exchange and collaborative planning among participants sharing interests and instructional goals.
The certificate program will be completed over one academic year sequence.
