Professional Education at the Harvard Graduate School of Education (HGSE) offers a robust portfolio of practical learning experiences designed for K–12 educators, school- and district-level leaders, as well as professionals at education-support organizations. Led by HGSE faculty and grounded in research, our programs are designed to improve the skills and competencies of education professionals to impact the lives and learning of the students they serve.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, HGSE Professional Education has canceled all residential offerings through December 2021 and has developed new and redesigned online programs tailored to meet the critical needs of educators in this moment.
