Special Education, M.Ed.

“This program has allowed me to grow in many ways as a professional, educator and learner. The professors are extremely helpful, caring, and accommodate for the needs of the students. I love the fact that it’s an online program. It allows students to continue to work while tending to their personal life and families. I couldn’t imagine myself continuing my education at any other college. It is a dream come true to receive an education from such an incredible team of professors.”
