Education certificate programs

Depending on where you are in your teacher journey, certificate programs can provide the relevant skills you need to take the next step. You can choose to become a teacher faster by taking one of our alternative licensure certificates. Or, if you're already a licensed teacher, you could consider our post master's certificates to build skills in areas like leadership, technology, or curriculum and instruction.

Frequently asked questions

No. A certificate program typically focuses on a specific body of knowledge and is usually much shorter in length. Certificates are a great option if you鈥檙e looking for specific knowledge or already have a degree and want to build skills outside of that program. And if you already have a bachelor鈥檚 degree and want to become a licensed teacher, our Graduate Alternative Pathway Education certificates provide you with an accelerated path to the classroom if you have a bachelor鈥檚 degree.

If you鈥檙e on the fence about taking on a doctoral degree, our Post Master鈥檚 Certificates allow you to take five courses from the core program.
