PGCert in Curriculum and Instruction

This online graduate certificate gives teachers, corporate trainers and curriculum writers advanced preparation in pedagogy, methods and assessment. Social-emotional learning and each learner's personal growth are a major theme, and the College's Education Department is a partner in delivering it. Students work toward outcomes such as curriculum mapping, applying pedagogical models in varied sociocultural contexts, building collaborative learning communities, and using assessment and instructional technology to support learners. The certificate can be finished in under a year. All of its credits can be stacked toward the M.Ed. in Curriculum and Instruction, which provides a streamlined route to a master's degree for those who want to continue. Prospective students can request information, attend a scheduled information session and apply online from the program page, with scholarships and financial aid available through the School of Graduate and Professional Studies.
