(Advanced Program for Principal Licensure) This program is designed for individuals interested in educational administration in the PK-12 setting and seeking a K-12 principal’s license. Applicants for this program are required to provide documentation of two years of verified teaching experience. The Interstate School Leaders Licensure Consortium (ISLLC) and the Educational Leadership Constituent Council (ELCC) standards form the foundation of this regionally accredited and Arizona-approved program of study. Courses are taught by expert practitioners in their respective fields who share knowledge and experience in areas of school leadership, administrative/leadership foundations, creating/sustaining positive school cultures, PK-12 legal issues, public school finance, curriculum development, professional development/empowerment of teachers, and instructional leadership. As an opportunity to apply theory to practice, practicum/field experience hours are embedded throughout the program. The Action Planning process frames these experiences. Field work within each course guides Principal Candidates through observation, practice, and hands-on leadership experiences. Principal Candidates must be prepared to complete three clinical internships for a total of 270 hours. Graduates of the program are well-prepared to be informed educational administrators in public and private schools, and other settings requiring a principal’s license.
