EdD - School Safety, Security, Emergency Management
National University’s EdD (Doctor of Education) with a specialization in School Safety, Security, and Emergency Management is designed to allow learners to focus on the three areas unique to the specialization. Students who feel safe and secure at school are better able to learn by engaging with the curriculum, their teachers, and their peers. Throughout this program, students will learn to recommend policies advancing equity and social justice in educational organizations, select ethical and regulatory compliant actions supporting the mission and vision of organizations, develop leadership skills through the integration of theoretical constructs with professional practice, and more. This specialization offers K-12 professionals and other related emergency management or district management personnel the opportunity to learn about diverse topics such as technologies to manage safety, security, and emergencies, threat assessments of people and facilities, restorative justice, and other alternatives to student discipline, and how to contribute, implement, and improve school safety plans.
