Learn More About our Program's Defining Features
Low-residency Delivery Model for Working Professionals
Recognizing the challenges faced by full-time working professionals, our low-residency model is designed to accommodate busy schedules. Our model preserves the benefits of in-person learning experiences while capitalizing on the flexibility of weekday Zoom classes. Our classes are a combination of selected Saturday in-person meetings at our Winchester and 罗 locations and weekday Zoom classes in the evening.
队列学习模式
的 cohort is a defining feature of our program. Cohorts are composed of mid- and senior-career professionals enrolled in our Educational 领导 Ph.D. 和艾德.D. programs who move through a sequence of required program and research core together. 合并Ed.D. 和Ph值.D. cohort creates connections between learners grounded in practice and those oriented toward research. This provides ongoing opportunities to learn from and with colleagues of diverse professional experiences and perspectives. 的 cohort provides a source of support for learners juggling work, 学校, 家庭, 以及其他义务. We also integrate opportunities for cohorts to interact at different stages of coursework and dissertation. 通过队列, learners also grow their network of leader colleagues across educational settings and related organizations.
