Our program offers the opportunity to enroll in graduate-level courses without the need to complete a degree. And because all courses are taught online, there is no need to travel. Through a selection of our online courses, you can expand your expertise on constitutional government, civics, and law through rigorous study and live discussion, led by our expert faculty. These courses are offered tuition-free for active K-12 teachers thanks to support from the Jack Miller Center for Teaching America’s Founding Principles and History.
