Online Master's Degrees in Education

Whether you are or aspire to be a classroom teacher, counselor, or administrator, online master's degrees in education can help further your career opportunities while you continue to work full time. Online Master of Arts in Education degrees are available with concentrations in a variety of specialties, including:
  • Administration and supervision
  • Adult education
  • Distance learning
  • Special education
  • Curriculum and technology
While a bachelor's degree is enough for some jobs in education, administrators increasingly need advanced degrees and are expected to keep abreast of current industry practices.

With online master's degrees in education, you have access to qualified instructors and other motivated students. You can participate in virtual classroom discussions, listen to lectures, and perform research on your own schedule. Online degrees in education administration often include courses in areas such as school finance and budgeting, curriculum development and evaluation, community relations, and school law.

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics expects to see steady growth in the employment of school administrators. Job prospects should be good for individuals seeking jobs as college and university administrators, and principals and assistant principals. While no degree can promise a particular position or salary, elementary and secondary school administrators earned a median salary of $74,190 in May 2004.
