This program is designed to develop superintendents and assistant superintendents competent to plan, monitor, and evaluate activities based upon many roles.  The goal of the program is not that participants be experts in all areas but rather that they be competent to provide leadership and to be accountable for school wide operations.  Courses and experiences emphasize that education is a human process requiring group support and involvement if administratration is to be successful.

The program is available through the Angel format offered on The University of Scranton Website.  All assignments, discussion boards, and submission of work are provided through the 24/7 Website connection.  Students are assigned a University mentor who was a former superintendent who helps guide students through the program.
