Northcentral University knows that the need for well prepared educational leader leaders has never been greater. Today the Ed.D. has evolved to a terminal degree of choice for educational practitioners. The online Ed.D. attracts learners who have leadership responsibility for providing learning/training to others, whether they be in colleges, PK-12 schools, proprietary organizations, private and public businesses, or the military. The specialization in Teacher Leadership (TL) prepares learners with a knowledge base, skill set, and competencies necessary to assume diverse leadership roles in the educational enterprise. Teacher Leadership is about energizing and mobilizing the "sleeping giant" - the untapped attributes and contributions of teachers to strengthen student performance and increase student achievement.
