K-12 Educators

Building skills for today's classrooms

Concordia's Education Department sets a high standard for excellence, not only for its faculty but for students in the program. Faculty nurture and mentor students through liberal arts experiences, preparing them with more than the skills needed to build a solid curriculum. We provide perspective and insight along with techniques and innovative methodology to ensure student success in today's classrooms.

As students transition from our classrooms to their own, we aim to provide consistent, high-quality continued education for all K-12 teachers. We offer practicing educators resources, training, events and connections to a peer community.
