Maestría en Ciencias en Administración Educativa - Énfasis en Director de Primera Infancia

The early childhood director track of the Master of Science in Educational Administration program prepares candidates to meet the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS) early childhood director standards. Both principals and early childhood directors share many required school leadership skills, but some are unique. Therefore, some courses will be shared with principals and enable early childhood directors to apply content to their context. Other courses are unique in content to early childhood directors. Common courses involve servant leadership, vision, planning, communication, relationships, management, budgeting, school safety, and outreach. Unique courses address child development issues, early childhood curriculum, and specific legal requirements involving young children. Practical Application is embedded throughout the entire program but is especially integrated into the research, field project, or internship components.

Martin Luther College Office of Continuing Education offers many online and satellite courses that provide training for early childhood directors and teachers, elementary teachers, principals, high school teachers, staff ministers, and lay workers.

Martin Luther College is owned and operated by the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod (WELS). Formed from an amalgamation of Dr. Martin Luther College (founded in 1884) and Northwestern College (founded in 1865), Martin Luther College opened its doors to the next generation of church workers in 1995.

Our mission is to empower every Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod educator and staff minister for every ministry stage.
