Program Description:

The mission of the Program for Advanced Studies in Education (PASE) aligns with a single perspective—developing a high level of professionalism among currently practicing teachers where professionalism includes: The ability to effectively navigate difficult and ambiguous practical classroom situations from the perspective of deep theoretical and ethical insight; A commitment to skillful leadership in the alignment of educational principles, organizational processes, personal values and behaviors for the benefit of students; and Critical, reasoned and reflective engagement and dialogue with other educational professionals on current important issues.

We currently offer graduate programs in K-12 Reading, with endorsement; Curriculum and Instruction, Computer Technology, with endorsement; and Special Education K-12 (Mild-Moderate), with licensure. All programs are designed to be completed in two years. In order to provide convenience for our educators, the program is conducted at sites close to the participants. The teachers need only commit one evening per week, from 4:30 p.m. until 9:00 p.m., the same night of the week for the entire program. Each course is completed in eight weeks. Tuition has been reduced and is guaranteed for area teachers.
