Doctor of Education

Our Doctor of Education (EdD) in Educational Leadership is a doctoral degree that teaches seasoned educators and professionals specific, research-informed leadership practices, and prepares them to appropriately apply their learning to their own workplace and leadership roles.

The primary goal of the EdD program is to prepare graduates to act as scholarly and influential leaders who will have an effective impact on, and promote sustainable change in, their workplaces. All course work is completed online, though students are expected to defend their final project onsite during the last term of the program’s final year.

*This program is considered full time, but is structured in a manner which allows you to continue the important work that you do within your sector.
