ADVANCEMENT COURSES
Since 1988, Advancement Courses has provided
graduate-level, self-paced distance learning courses
for salary advancement and recertification to tens of
thousands of teachers. We offer over 150 engaging,
affordable, and classroom applicable courses in both
online and print-based formats.
Our course creators are a diverse team of teachers
and instructional coaches who are true subject matter
experts and tie their classroom experience into every
course. All of our courses integrate practical strategies,
reflective journaling, self-evaluation tools, and authentic
assessments. These courses are not just filled with
innovative techniques and perspectives; they also show
you what these tools look like in practice, which is often
the missing piece of professional development.
Our flexible coursework is not tied to a semester, can be
completed up to six months after enrollment, and can
be taken anytime and anywhere.
Recognizing the investment you've already made to
become a licensed educator, our courses are offered
at competitive prices that include all credits, materials,
and shipping.
