Program Disclosures

The Master of Science in Higher Education Leadership degree provides the opportunity to prepare for opportunities for leadership within higher education. It is not designed to fulfill the educational requirements for any educational credential, such as a state teacher’s license or TESOL certification.

Post University assists in researching and providing information regarding licensure; however, each state has different requirements for such licensure outside of the required education. Such state requirements may include licensure exams, background checks, certain work experience, and more. It is ultimately the responsibility of each student to manage their own licensure process and to ensure that all requirements are met in order for the student to obtain licensure. Post University does not speak on behalf of any licensing board or body and does not guarantee licensure. Requirements for licensure are subject to change without notice.

“We first want to teach our students who in most cases are in the first third of their professions to continue to cultivate their thinking skills, their ability to really look at the challenges within the educational fields and to be able to utilize that knowledge to help advance them professionally, to help them respond to the needs they see within their organization.”

– Peter Madonia
Program Chair, Master of Education
