Online Instruction and Design (K-12)

Schools and Districts can no longer rely solely on traditional instruction utilizing a face-to-face model; instead, educators must become versed in online instructional delivery and design to meet current needs of K-12 learners. The Online Instruction K-12 certification program is designed for students who are seeking training and preparation in developing, teaching, managing, and assessing effective online instruction in today’s K-12 schools by studying learning theories, instructional strategies, technology, and best practices for application in the virtual classroom.
