Tier II, Professional Administrative Credential
Program Overview:

The CSUDH program prepares school leaders to confront issues of equity, achievement gaps, scarce resources, hard to staff schools, and underperforming teachers and staff. The candidates will learn to lead in ways that positively impact teaching and learning, school culture, and community involvement.

The program is designed on individual candidates’ special needs. Candidates will develop their electronic Individual Induction Plan (IIP) via a battery of assessments based on six thematic areas (CPSELs). Candidates participate in field experiences, university and non-university sponsored activities, seminars, panel discussions, independent reading, reflective practice and on-line learning as specified in their IIP.

There are four major components to the Tier II, Professional Administrative Credential program:
  1. Traditional classes based on the California Professional Standards for Educational Leaders. These classes will be in cohorts and include lecture, panel discussions, and seminars. (25%)
  2. Online-learning that reinforces and enhances the traditional classes and extends professional
    preparation through case study analysis, on-line discussions and extensive professional reading. (50%)
  3. Field-based leadership projects that integrates course work, readings, mentoring, and on-line
    components. ((25%)
  4. Mentoring, coaching, and advising provided by university cohort coordinator and instructor who have extensive field experience.
