Educational Leadership: Administrator Certification

Educators who have a master’s degree from an accredited institution, and who meet admission requirements for the Educational Leadership program, are eligible to pursue Washington state P-12 Principal and/or Program Administrator Residency, or Career and Technical Education (CTE) Certification. This program involves 36 credits of emphasis courses, internships, and reflective seminars that are a subset of the M.Ed. Degree program.

Out-of-state applicants should consult their state department of education for transferability of course work and/or certificate as Washington has reciprocity agreements with some other states. Certificates include a City University of Seattle Graduate Certificate and, likely, a Washington state residency certificate for principal and/or program administrator.
