Greetings educators,

2020 and the COVID-19 pandemic taught us all a great deal about ourselves, including identifying our strengths as well as areas where we need growth. Embracing growth can benefit you, your school or district, and your students and The Patton College of Education at Ohio University<https://www.ohio.edu/education/> is here to help with fully online professional development opportunities for educators. There’s still time to begin during fall semester 2021 – the application deadline is July 31 and online classes begin August 23.

Please take a look and help us spread the word about our online master’s degrees, certificates, and endorsements that can help educators maintain licensure, boost their career (and salary) potential, stay abreast of new developments in pedagogy, and/or move into a new career arena in the field of education.

Why choose The Patton College? We are fully accredited<https://www.ohio.edu/education/assessment/accreditation> with substantial evidence of teacher quality<https://www.ohio.edu/education/assessment/teacher-quality>, and we are working to keep study affordable. In addition, we were named the #1 best value public institution in the state of Ohio by U.S. News and World Report.

Ohio University offers many courses that are appropriate for continuing education credit and several graduate endorsement, certificate, and degree programs that are fully online. Those who are interested in starting a graduate degree can choose from several programs that are listed below. Those who need continuing education credits can apply as a non-degree-seeking graduate student.

Our caring faculty strive to make the education process as flexible as possible to meet the needs of our online students, the majority of whom are working professionals.
