Academic departments provide various sponsorships to help the Graduate School support customized learning opportunities for K-12 educators. These opportunities earn graduate coursework credit for grad students, who also receive individualized mentoring developed according to their schools' unique needs. Specialized graduate courses provide classroom teachers with a balanced learning experience; in addition to group instruction, participants also have the benefit of one-on-one classroom coaching.
