Advanced Certificate Program in Educational Leadership
The courses for this 24-credit nondegree program cover material essential to strong performance as a school administrator. The course work emphasizes instructional and community leadership, personnel management, and administration of the school unit. Completion of this program leads to eligibility for New York State certification in School Building Leadership (SBL). (Students may also prepare for New York State certification with the 33-credit MSEd program in educational leadership. Students seeking the MSEd take three additional courses after completing those required for SBL certification.)
