WELS Teaching
100% Online
The WELS Teaching emphasis provides general pedagogical instruction for high school teachers who have a bachelor’s degree and experience in a content area but do not have a degree in education.
This degree includes a graduate-level theology certificate to fulfill ministry certification requirements.
Planning YOUR master’s program is as easy as 1, 2, 3.
- Print your program plan.
- Pick the electives that match your ministry.
You may select half of your courses from outside your emphasis. The course descriptions will help you decide which courses best match your responsibilities and interests. - Fit the courses into your schedule.
The Long-Term Course Calendar shows when courses are offered so you can schedule them when it’s convenient for you. Complete your program in as little as two years (instruction or leadership), through summers only (leadership), or by taking your time and spreading the courses out over seven years.
