This 15-credit online graduate certificate
program is available to students enrolled in master's and doctoral programs in
many fields at Rutgers University, and is open to all with a bachelor's degree. The
certificate program is designed to help New Jersey educators, administrators,
and parents meet the challenges of educating gifted children. This special
program was developed with input from district superintendents, teachers,
parents, the Educational Information and Resource Center, and the statewide
advocates for gifted children, including the New Jersey Association for Gifted
Children. The curriculum was developed in alignment with state and national
standards and addresses foundations and
theories of gifted education, the social and emotional development of the
gifted child, curriculum design and implementation, pedagogy, instructional
strategies, and the development and administration of a gifted education
program.
