The Sacramento County Office of Education (SCOE) Leadership Institute held a virtual celebration yesterday to honor its 2021 graduating class. During the ceremony, 63 participants received a Preliminary Administrative Services Credential, allowing them to apply for site administrator, vice-principal, and other district administration positions. The credentials are authorized by the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing.
The Leadership Institute, part of the SCOE School of Education, prepares aspiring administrators to fill the expected need for highly qualified and trained administrators. It also helps train newly appointed administrators (one or two years of experience), continuing administrators (three or more years of experience), and established district administrators.
The School of Education is made up of two divisions: Teaching and Leading. The Leadership Institute is part of the “Leading” division, while the “Teaching” division includes the Teacher Intern Program and the Teacher Induction Program.
