The Educational Administration (EDAD) program prepares educational leaders and future administrators to promote PK-12 student growth and equitable educational opportunities for all students.
At CSUB's EDAD program, we see our primary mission as cultivating supportive learning partnerships with EDAD candidates as they work within their schools to identify and address inequities of student achievement and well-being. The EDAD faculty brings real-world experience from a variety of educational leadership positions along with new insights gained from recent research and theory that we apply in:
Teaching EDAD candidates the principles of visionary, instructional, and ethical leadership.
Coaching EDAD candidates in the essential leadership skills of analyzing data, leading communities of practice, and advancing teacher instructional skills.
Developing candidates' capacity to manage their school learning environments and influence their policy contexts.
Preparing EDAD candidates to engage their school communities.
All EDAD candidates participate in the two-semester Credentialing program culminating in qualification for the California Preliminary Administrative Services Credential(PASC). Support for the California Administrator Performance Assessment (CalAPA) is embedded in the credentialing program.
Students wishing to earn a Master of Arts in Educational Administration return the following fall for one research-intensive semester addressing a real-world problem of educational practice.
We are preparing the leaders of tomorrow by expanding minds, engaging hearts, and enhancing communities.
