Introduction

At ECU Accelerated Online, you can choose between two course specialisations for your Master of Education. These specialisations are the most in-demand, fulfilling a large and growing need for individuals with expertise in these areas within educational settings in Australia.

Choose a specialisation

Early Childhood Education

For those who wish to lead the way, from pedagogy and practice to policy and leadership, in early childhood education.

Leading Education

For current and future school leaders who want to lead with confidence and create positive outcomes for students, their school, and the communities they serve.

What you will study

Each of these Master of Education specialisations comprises the same four core units and then four specialisation units.

The Master of Education (Early Childhood Education) will challenge you to reconceptualise and deepen your knowledge of effective pedagogy and practice, and critically reflect on the latest research and how it influences your role as an early childhood education leader.

The Master of Education (Leading Education) will instil in you the confidence to strategically and ethically lead your people and organisation to enhance learning outcomes for students and maintain the excellent reputation of your organisation in times of unprecedented change and a climate of increased public accountability in the education sector.
