Supervisor of Special Education

Post Master's Certificate

Take a leadership role in the field of Special Education by enrolling in Edinboro's Post-Master's Special Education Supervisor online program.

One Of The Best Online Programs In the U.S.

U.S. News and World Report named Edinboro's master's degree in Special Education one of the best online programs in the country.

Why Edinboro Stands Out.

Edinboro's programs in Educational Leadership show school and school-related personnel how to develop their leadership style and acquire skills to lead at the classroom, building and district levels.

The certificate program for Supervisor in Special Education is no exception.

"Leadership for Student Achievement" is the common thread throughout the program. The coursework and related experiences prepare you to promote the success of all students by becoming a district level leader for Special Education within the K-12 school system.

Upon successful completion of the program and the appropriate PRAXIS examination, you can apply for PA Supervisor of Special Education certification.

Developing leaders that promote the success of all students continues to be the driving force in our program. This is demonstrated by the dedication of our program faculty who strive to meet the needs of our graduate students and assist each one of them along their leadership journey.
