The Doctor of Education in Educational Leadership program is a 51-credit program centered around the values of transformational thought leadership. The ever changing landscape of P-20 learning is creating a demand for leaders with a wide breadth of experience, knowledge, vision and ethics. Centenary University strives to develop leaders who will successfully guide organizations into an uncertain future. By understanding and appreciating the multiple constituencies and stakeholders that form organizational communities, Centenary graduates will lead in a transformational style – not just to guide in a linear fashion, but to completely envelop the larger community into their mission. Mindful of the many resources under their care and direction, Centenary leaders will embrace challenges, build positive coalitions, craft and sustain positive change and create safe and stable learning environments for all of their stakeholders.


This program is both critical and useful for school leaders, non-profit leaders, corporate trainers, business leaders and governmental leaders. The EdD program is available in person and via synchronous online coursework.


Note: Students in the EdD program may be eligible for the School Administrator Certificate if they don’t already have one unless they specifically opt out of the certificate (and take course number 795 instead of 770).
