Capella University

Today, Capella University announced a new Bachelor of Science in Public safety program. They have also added 8 new graduate and undergraduate specializations that you can learn about by checking out their website online. There is a real need for a leadership specialization focused on special education. I know that special education is growing by leaps and bounds in our community and it is a small town. Teachers are in demand and must have this special training. Pamela Potter, president of the National association of Pupil Services Administrators, basically said the present program was inadequate. Capella is leading the way to a more effective and efficient way to prepare for a job in special education. Headstart in most communities has tried to fill the gap for special ed students but it was not enough. Our school added an entire new department with more teachers. I am sure they could all take advantage of the training that Capella offers.
