This 12-credit hour graduate certificate prepares you to design continuous improvement processes in your school or district. Educators who embrace improvement science use Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) cycles to test ideas that respond to persistent challenges. Improvement science moves educators beyond the traditional pilot program toward a disciplined approach that helps new practices spread faster, with greater fidelity, and reduced variation.
