To meet working professionals where they are, Walla Walla University now offers both its Master of Social Work and Master of Education programs in a flexible, online format.
The online MSW program utilizes a combination of live digital meetings and asynchronous coursework, which fosters a connected learning community while maintaining more balance for students’ studies, work, family and lives.
Depending on the student's undergraduate degree, this degree can be earned in one to two years. During the program, students complete fieldwork requirements within their local communities and engage in a curriculum focused on ethics, social justice and hands-on practice. “This is convenience without compromising quality,” said Deisy Haid, WWU professor of social work.
The Stackable Graduate Certificates Program is an exciting new pathway to a WWU MEd for less than $14,000. It offers professional certificates in several specializations, meaning graduate students can apply many course assignments to their work.
“This is truly a flexible program for the modern professional,” said Maria Bastien Valenca, WWU School of Education and Psychology dean. “Start when you want. Pay as you go. Earn one, two or all three certificates — we want to support your professional goals and your schedule.”
Both programs provide the same high-quality, accredited education as their in-person counterparts, just in a more customizable format. We want our degrees to fit our students, not the opposite.
