How to Add a Graduate Certificate
Diversify your Expertise at Arcadia's School of Education
What is a Graduate Certificate?
If you are looking to develop targeted expertise in one area of education (such as STEM, ESL, or Connected Learning), then you are a great candidate for a graduate certificate program. The programs are typically 4-5 graduate classes, often available online and over the summer. You can even combine two certificates towards a Modular Masters Degree in Education.
