- Benefits of earning a Masters Degree in Education
Alaska needs teachers, and those teachers who obtain their master’s degrees will have a distinct advantage. While the state is 13th in the country in teachers per capita, it also has one of the 10 highest pupil-teacher ratios in the country, and is currently reporting teacher shortages in the areas of math, science, and special education.
By increasing your own knowledge and effectiveness as a teacher through continuing education, you’ll be better able to equip Alaska students with the skills, intellectual development, and love of learning they’ll need to succeed throughout their lives.
