PGCert in Educational Administration and Supervision

The Superintendent Endorsement certificate is designed for Illinois educators who want advanced preparation in leading and administering public school districts. It requires 36 credit hours and is offered fully online. Applicants are expected to have a graduate degree and school leadership experience. The hosting department also runs a policy research center that publishes journals on education policy. Prospective graduate students can register for a visit to see what graduate life at Illinois State is like. The Graduate School handles admission and reviews transcripts, while the university catalog lists the course requirements. Department contacts can answer questions about planning a course of study and the steps for applying. Applicants should read the program page for details on sequencing, advising and any extra materials the department asks them to send alongside the standard transcripts, so reading it early helps applicants prepare a complete file.
