Building skills for today's classrooms.
Concordia's Education Department sets a high standard for excellence, not only for its faculty but for students in the program. Faculty nurture and mentor students through liberal arts experiences, preparing them with more than the skills needed to build a solid curriculum. They are given perspective and insight into other essential qualities needed in classrooms today.
As students transition from our classrooms to their own, we aim to provide consistent, high-quality continued education for all K-16 professionals. Under the umbrella of the Education Department, our STAR Institute of Education provides practicing educators with resources, training, events and connections to an strong peer community. Our focus is on collaborative sharing and implementing positive innovations in today's classrooms to ensure all students success in the future.
Master of Education in World Language Instruction | An innovative, experiential program that is partnered with Concordia Language Villages, immersion camps in 15 different languages, to create one of the most unique Master's programs in the United States. Language teachers and other professionals from all teaching contexts and language backgrounds are invited to apply to this program, which is designed to challenge and build skills related to language acquisition and language teaching.
Post Baccalaureate Teaching Preparation | This program is ideal for busy, working individuals looking for a career change into teaching. Our accelerated teaching prep program is an intensive hybrid program designed for those interested in teaching math, biology, chemistry, or Spanish, German, French or Chinese at the secondary school level. Students will complete an education major in one year, and prepare for teaching licensure in MN and other states. Student teaching assignments will be arranged based on each student's location.
