Program Overview
The program places you in the principal's or district-level administrator's seat while simulating the responsibilities of deciding what to do when time, ethics, and limited resources are factors.
The curriculum combines theory, authentic case studies, class discussions, online course components, candidates’ experience, and field-based internships to address current and emerging issues impacting the quality of education.
Upon completion of the program, you will be required to achieve satisfactory scores on school building leadership or school building leader and school district leader assessments, administered by the state, to achieve certification and graduate from JAVĿ¼.
