Master of Education in Montessori Education

Students enrolling in Montessori training programs earn graduate credit; therefore, the course of study must be listed as discrete “courses” for purposes of registration. It should be noted, however, that the actual training is presented as an integrated, interdisciplinary program of psychology, methodology, practicals, observation, and practice teaching.

The complete course of study for the M.Ed. in Montessori Education consists of 36 graduate credits plus comprehensive written and oral exams.
