This option prepares teachers in advanced leadership skills for the delivery of special education services to children and youth with identified disabilities. The option is designed to provide an advanced career path in special education to two different categories of teachers. One Masters path is for teachers who already hold the Level I Mild/Moderate (M/M) and/or Moderate/Severe (M/S) Disability Education Specialist Credential(s) and who need to complete the Professional Level II coursework in order to retain their education specialist credential. This path also is appropriate for special educators who hold a Learning Handicapped or equivalent credential and wish only to obtain a Masters in Special Education. The second Masters path is for teachers who hold a valid basic teaching credential (or equivalent) and are seeking a Masters and the Level I Mild/Moderate (M/M) and/or Moderate/Severe (M/S) Disability Education Specialist Credential(s).

 

For additional information on the Special Education Option, contact: Dr. Jacque Thousand at jthousan@csusm.edu or Dr. Toni Hood at thood@csusm.edu.
