Slippery Rock University will begin offering a new doctoral program delivered fully online beginning this fall.
The Doctorate of Education in educational leadership and administration degree program is designed to prepare working professionals for leadership positions in higher education, including college and university presidencies.
This program will address the development of knowledge and skills required to lead an institution by establishing an organizational vision, implementing a strategic plan, and engaging in effective decision making. It will also focus on new approaches in such areas as data analytics, finance, budgeting, management, marketing and fundraising. 24/7 access to an expert mentor will also be provided as part of this unprecedented package.
In recent times, leadership training has come a long way. For example, thanks to corporate mentoring software such as this high potential leadership program, individuals working in a wide range of different sectors, from business to education, are now able to receive high quality mentoring and training that provides the skills and experiences necessary to enjoy a long and productive career in most fields.
Above all, by working closely with a mentor to develop leadership abilities, attendees of this extraordinary program will be given the chance to perfect their skills and apply their newfound abilities to a wide range of real-life scenarios.
Successful graduates of the scheme will be encouraged to pursue executive positions in both corporate and educational settings.
Courses will be offered online, year-round. The required dissertation seminar also will be made available face-to-face for students desiring such a format.
