The goal of the Certificate of Advanced Study (CAS) program in Educational Leadership is to provide candidates with the required credits beyond the Master's degree to advance the 092 endorsement from provisional to professional.
The CAS in Educational Leadership consists of an additional 15 credits beyond the Intermediate Administrator (092) Certificate program.  The program provides candidates with a leadership internship focusing on school district matters, study in the pedagogical and administrative uses of technology, and an in-depth experience of research on a challenge in the candidate's professional setting.
