The College of Education and Educational Technology

The Department of Adult and Community Education is a graduate department offering two programs leading to the Master of Arts degree. Adult and Community Education helps students develop skills related to teaching and planning educational programs for adults in a wide variety of settings, including business and industry, the community, social service organizations, health agencies and hospitals, colleges and universities, the government, and religious institutions. The Master of Arts in Adult Education and Communications Technology (AECT), jointly administered with the Department of Communications Media, prepares students to become adult educators with an emphasis on the use of technology, including computers, production design, radio and television, and distance education technology. Completion of appropriate requirements allows students in the AECT program to apply for PDE certification as an Instructional Technology Specialist.
