What does it mean to be "gifted"? How are teaching strategies for gifted students different from effective practice relevant for all students? What unique socio-emotional needs of gifted students should be considered in counseling? How can we generate creative productivity in gifted students? These questions will be addressed throughout the graduate certificate program in Gifted Education.

Courses in the program provide participants with cutting-edge professional preparedness in accordance with NCATE and the National Association for Gifted Children standards for gifted education. Credits earned in the program fulfill the educational requirements necessary to apply for a Florida teaching certificate endorsement in gifted education. In addition, these credits can be applied toward the master's degree program in Teacher Leadership.
