EdS - 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 title. 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 develop skills to support educational practices across diverse instructional and organizational settings, and to communicate with diverse audiences about educational theories, research, and practices . Other skills include analyzing professional skills, dispositions, and technology options for learning and educating diverse groups, applying evidence-based solutions for addressing educational, organizational, and societal issues, and analyzing current research, theories, and instructional practices in educational and organizational environments. Further, a theoretical underpinning of these issues and the needed response will be examined. Learners will demonstrate their proficiency through a capstone project in the final specialization course.
