The Master of Education with a Major in Leadership in the College of Education offers students a curriculum that addresses being a leader in a P-12 educational setting. The School Administration concentration leads to initial Tier I Educational Leadership certification in Georgia. The program prepares educators to assume positions such as lead teacher, assistant principal, or central office staff.
Applicants for leadership programs must meet the requirements for admissions to the respective programs. Requirements for admission are located on the Graduate Admissions website.
Applicants who hold a Master’s degree or higher and a standard professional certificate may complete the non-degree, certification-only program to add either initial Tier I Educational Leadership certification or Teacher Leadership certification respectively to their current Georgia Educator credentials. Courses in the program of study are scheduled in 8-week terms and offered online to provide students the opportunity to complete the programs in a timely fashion.
