For those passionate about writing instruction and seeking to enhance their expertise while obtaining professional credentials, Ball State's graduate certificate in teaching writing is an excellent option. This 15-credit program appeals to individuals looking to deepen their understanding of writing theory and connect with a network of writing educators. Although available to all qualified candidates, secondary educators teaching dual-credit English classes may particularly benefit, as the certificate helps satisfy the Higher Learning Commission's mandate of 18 graduate credits in one's teaching discipline. Educators can complete this certificate and supplement it with one additional three-credit graduate course to fully meet HLC requirements.
