Message from the Director

Welcome to the Center for Leadership and Learning (CLL) website. We are pleased you have an interest in learning more about the CLL. The CLL continues to expand in students and in program development. The CLL will be in its sixth year of operation in 2006 as part of the School of Education at Arkansas Tech University.

The CLL programs for the preparation of school leaders for the building principal, curriculum administrator and superintendent received national recognition from the NCATE, Educational Leadership Constituency Council in 2004. Each program was recognized at the exemplary level. The School Counseling program received program approval during the School of Education NCATE review in 2005.

We are pleased to announce the approval of the Master in Teaching, Learning and Leadership as an avenue for an Arkansas Curriculum Administrator's License. With the state and national emphasis on student achievement through NCLB (No Child Left Behind), schools are beginning to see the need for curriculum specialists. Enrollment in this 38 hour degree program is available now. The CLL faculty and staff are busy preparing for the spring 2006 and summer 2006 schedule of classes for all programs. If you are interested in joining new cohorts of students begin the journey, please let us know by going on-line to make application to the graduate school or by contacting a program advisor for more information.
