Qualifications for Degree
Students are expected to complete all requirements associated with the program. The program consists of 11 courses totaling 33 credit hours. The program is normally completed in two years, although accelerated options are possible. The program must be completed within five years.
Certificate
Completion of this degree does not qualify the recipient for a license or certification in Delaware, since there is no relevant Delaware license or certificate. The degree satisfies most course requirements for the Delaware School Leader I certificate (see INSTRUCTION degree section). By taking two additional school leadership courses (MED 7201 and MED 7706 or MED 7707), candidates will satisfy course requirements for the Delaware Principal/Assistant Principal Certificate. However, candidates completing the five technology courses listed above with a GPA of 3.0 or higher will upon application to the Wilmington University Office of the Registrar, be issued a Wilmington University Certificate of Advanced Study in Applied Technology in Education. You may obtain a Graduate Certificate Program Form from the Registration Book or by downloading it from the Wilmington University Registrar’s webpage.
