EDL 770B - Administrative Apprenticeship: Part II

The administrative apprenticeship provides students at Endicott College with professionally supervised, consistent and comprehensive exposure to the roles and functions of a wide variety of administrative offices in PreK-12 leadership. The apprenticeship is structured to introduce participants to contemporary administrative issues, problems, and practices in PreK-12 leadership and to refine leadership skills and competencies. The apprenticeship provides students with first-hand experience from which they can become better informed regarding the diversity and complexity of administrative functions and leadership roles. It offers students opportunities to construct from theoretical, research, and practical knowledge their own conceptual frameworks for understanding how small colleges and universities work. This course provides a structure that allows students to engage in administrative responsibilities under continuous supervision. Between EDL770 A and B, students will have a minimum of 500 hours of apprenticeship, which will be documented by the student and submitted at the end of the class with the remaining course requirements. Students will work out the logistics with the respective colleges and will have them approved by their Apprenticeship Faculty and the Director of the Ed.D. program. Note: This course is Pass/Fail.
