English as a Second Language and Indian Education for All for Teachers through the CLDE Online Certificate Program

Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Education Certificate 

The CLDE Certificate will lead you from foundational to mastery in linguistic and cultural knowledge/pedagogy through a chronologic, cohort-style structure. These courses are asynchronous online courses so that working professionals are able to complete in consideration of teaching schedules. While courses are targeted toward teaching professionals, non-teachers can also apply. The two summer courses are 6-week online back-to-back courses, and the fall and spring courses are 8-week online courses each semester.
