NYSED Grant-Supported Cohort Program Brings a DEI Focus to a Proven Leadership Curriculum

Stony Brook University‘s Educational Leadership (EDL) post-master’s certificate has prepared thousands of New York educators to become effective school district and school building leaders. In response to the urgent need for more diverse leadership, the program partnered with several professional teachers associations as well as teachers center to develop a unique cohort program that incorporates a diversity, equity and inclusion perspective into the curriculum.

This year, the EDL program has received a grant from the New York State Education Department that will supplement the program fees for our next cohort of diverse leaders.

COhort Program Features

  • Combined SDL and SBL leadership program.  Candidates will prepare for both certifications in single program to increase their marketability.
