Graduate Certificate

Program Description

Social neuroscientists and educational theorists agree that human beings learn best when they experience safety, connection with teachers and peers, and equity. This year-long, 12-credit graduate program is designed for educators, specialists, and leaders who want to build the skills, understanding, awareness and capacity to support those needs, on a personal and systemic level. The Holistic Restorative Education Certificate Program seeks to be restorative for its participants by shifting how we do education to a more human-centered practice whose success as a whole is dependent on the wellness of all its members. The program supports educators and leaders in developing the core practices of mindfulness, restorative approaches, healing-centered engagement, and culturally responsive teaching. Mindfulness and equity are powerful throughlines in this program.
