Why Edgewood?
Edgewood College Quality
Courses are taught by academically and professionally qualified faculty who combine sound theoretical knowledge with practical, real-world experience.
Instructors recognize the knowledge and perspective that students contribute to the learning process by encouraging engagement in the classroom.
Students have an opportunity to meet one-on-one with instructors and advisors to discuss individual goals, interests and special needs.
Our small class size promotes a sense of community and facilitates individualized instruction.
Edgewood College is a member of the National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Education (NCATE). Our program was developed in conjunction with the goals and objectives of the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction and the National Council for Exceptional Children.
Edgewood College has been recognized by
U.S. News & World Report
as a “Best National University,” among “America’s Best Colleges” by
Forbes
, and a “Best in the Midwest College” by
Princeton Review
in 2011.
A Program Designed for Working Adults
Courses are offered on evenings and weekends to accommodate busy schedules.
Take one class, two classes or three classes. Begin in the fall, spring, or summer. It’s up to you!
You will have the opportunity to work in a team-based setting that mirrors the professional work settings of classrooms and business offices.
Collaboration with fellow students and schools and other organizations is encouraged and supported.
Students’ previous academic and experiential accomplishments are highly valued in degree and licensing programs, and often result in even more timely completion.
