Specifically designed for already licensed, practicing teachers, the M.S. in Educational Leadership at WGU is for those aspiring to become school principals. A 2008 USDLA (United States Distance Learning Association) Best Practices award recipient, WGU offers its students an affordable, NCATE and regionally accredited online education. The case-study approach integrates best practices in educational leadership that culminates in an integrated practicum and capstone project. If you can devote 15-20 hours per week to your studies, completion of this degree program will prepare you to serve as a highly effective, instruction-based, certified principal. You will learn, for example, how to design and implement effective, standards-based educational improvement plans. The M.S. in Educational Leadership is based on multiple national standards, including the standards of the Interstate School Leaders Licensure Consortium (ISLLC) and the principles of the Baldrige National Quality Program's Education Criteria for Performance Excellence in Schools. |
