Earn a master&#8217s in education administration on your schedule

Advancing your career in education isn’t always the easiest path. To get a job beyond the classroom, you normally have to get a master’s degree. Fortunately, you can earn your master’s degree in education administration on your own schedule while still working.

Convenience

Nowadays, most adults don’t have the time to quit their jobs to go back to school or even take classes in the evening because of other responsibilities. Online classes offer convenience and flexibility. Many teachers choose this route for their master’s. This can also be a benefit for teachers not wanting to get off their tenure track. They’re able to work on their classwork during their off-periods and at home.

Another convenient aspect of an online master’s in education administration is getting guidance from your on-campus administration team. Certain districts and classes may require intern hours as part of their administration program. If you’re already a teacher, it may be easier to help out around your school and gain first-hand experience from your administration.

Jobs

A master’s degree in education administration is not only required for most administrative jobs, but for other education jobs as well. Many districts want instructional coordinators to have a master’s degree. Instructional coordinators cover specific subjects (science, social studies, English, math) and assist in the quality of the district’s curriculum, textbooks, and training materials for teachers. So, there are other options out there for people who receive their master’s degrees in education administration.

Having the option of getting your master’s degree from online classes makes advancing your education career much more accessible. You can carve out your own time during the day and aren’t hindered by set class times. Plus, there’s the added benefit of using your current administration as a resource for intern hours or with any questions you might have.
