Insights into Our Online MSEd. in Reading Program

Designed for K-12 educators, the Reading program from Northwest Missouri State University gives you the tools and resources you need to help students reach their fullest literacy potential.

Also, the Missouri Special Reading Teacher Certification for K-12 is available through consultation with an advisor. Additional coursework is required beyond the graduate degree for candidates seeking this certification.
