Not Accepting Applications

To best meet the needs of our students, we have decided to suspend enrollment in the Post-Master’s Advanced Certificate in Bilingual Education. We encourage you to explore our Master of Arts in Bilingual Education for Teachers or Doctor of Philosophy in Bilingual Education.

This post-master’s advanced certificate prepares multilingual and bilingual education teachers, supervisors, teacher trainers, administrators, and materials developers who seek additional credentials and want to build on their knowledge of bilingual education. You'll develop a robust foundation in bilingual education and have the option to pursue a New York State bilingual extension certificate.

Throughout your course of study, you will focus on strengthening your second-language teaching methods and approaches, as well as learn how to develop and implement innovative classroom strategies and curricula. You’ll build on your existing teaching practice and initial teaching certification using your current proficiency in Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, or Mandarin Chinese.

Upon completion of your certificate, you’ll be prepared for roles such as:

  • Teacher in private and community colleges and community organizations
  • Curriculum developer, specialist, or evaluator
  • Researcher, teacher educator, trainer, or program coordinator in governmental and nonprofit educational agencies and multinational corporations

This program also serves as an ideal bridge between your master’s degree and a doctoral degree.
