PGCert in Educational Administration and Supervision

The Professional Studies Certificate in Administration and Supervision serves people who already hold a master's degree and want licensure in Virginia for school leadership positions. The coursework aims to develop the leadership abilities required to run schools and education organizations effectively. Students learn from open discussion with professors and fellow practitioners, working through realistic scenarios that cannot be absorbed from a textbook alone. Two formats are described. In the synchronous format, learners meet live and move through the sequence together as a cohort. In the asynchronous format, everything is online, the schedule is flexible and there are multiple start dates, with no cohort. Applicants should choose whichever format best suits their circumstances, and details are available from the program staff.
