Principal & Program Administrator Certification Program

This 16-24 month program is designed according to current Washington State Principal/Program Administrator standards. The program provides candidates with the practical knowledge and skills they need to lead a school community in a responsive and results-oriented way.  Rigorous coursework and clinical experiences lead to the development of a Culminating Professional Portfolio, which includes performance-based documentation of candidates' knowledge, skills, dispositions, and professional behaviors.
