Specialize Your Knowledge

Sometimes you are looking for professional learning that gives you a more in-depth look at a very specific topic and also earns you an added credential but not necessarily an added degree. Our 18 credit hour graduate certificates may be just what you're looking for. These topics are very specific to the needs of educators that want an added specialization that makes them more attuned to a specific population of students or just more marketable in the workplace. We have several to choose from and, if it makes sense, can customize for you as well from course concentration areas already available.
