Empowering Massachusettes educators for administrative leadership
ACCEPT’s Educator Leadership Institute (ELI) is a licensure program preparing teachers and administrators for Principal/Assistant Principal PreK-8 or 5-12.
Upon completion of the coursework, ELI endorses the cohort of candidates to the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education for licensure.
Candidates may also choose to receive a master’s degree in partnership with Fitchburg State University.
Each new cohort begins in January.
To view detailed descriptions of the cirriculum and courses, please see the following document:
Classes will be held on Wednesdays from 4:00 – 8:15 pm at Accept Education Collaborative, 4 Tech Circle, Natick, MA 01760.
Although it is not a requirement for application or acceptance, we have found most prospective candidates desire a firsthand experience of the program prior to application. ELI holds three Information Sessions in the fall where prospective candidates have the opportunity to participate in a sample case study and discuss the program with current students, graduates and faculty.
