Post-Master's Graduate Certificate in Instructional Technology Leadership
The Post Master’s Graduate Certificate Program is designed for students wishing advanced study in the realm of Instructional Technology/Educational Media, that they might be more fully prepared for leadership roles in technology in educational environments. Students will further their knowledge in instructional leadership, management, media literacy, strategic planning, and the social, ethical, and legal issues surrounding the use of digital technologies.
Students who participate in this program will enter with a Master’s degree in Educational Media/Instructional Technology or a related field.
