Courses and Workshops

We also offer many highly regarded courses and workshops to enhance your professional development. You can enroll in one or more classes without being in a full master's program. Perhaps you’d like to learn more about the latest in mathematics education, writing grants, or best practices in family-school-community partnerships. Miami offers these and a wide variety of other courses on a regular basis. View our current course offerings.*

*To view courses on this site, choose the current semester and year when asked for "term," choose VOA West Chester, or Oxford when asked for the campus, choose EDL (educational leadership), EDP (educational psychology) or EDT (teacher education) depending upon your academic interests, and choose "graduate" when asked for the level. You may leave all the other boxes and menus unchecked. Then check "Get Classes."
