CUA’s teacher education program is accredited by the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP), and School Library Media (SLM) program is recognized by the American Library Association (ALA) and state approved by the District of Columbia Office of the State Superintendent of Education (OSSE). The SLM program is designed for individuals who aspire to direct library media programs in elementary, middle, or secondary schools. Those who have completed CUA’s SLM program are eligible for a license/endorsement in DC and -through a reciprocity agreement - in 44 other states and jurisdictions including Maryland. Students do not need to take education courses. You can find more information about the program at http://lis.cua.edu/MSinLS/coursesStudy/school.cfm.

Besides face-to-face and blended courses, LIS offers an Online and Weekend Learning (OWL) Program for the SLM course of study. Students in this program attend class one Saturday a month. All other instruction is delivered online. For more information, please visit our website: http://lis.cua.edu/owl/.
