Associate of Arts in Education (Non-licensure)

As an individual with a desire to further your education and gain insight into the foundational principles of education, earning your Associate of Arts in Education will equip you with the specialized knowledge, insight, and skills you need to achieve your goals and succeed in your career.

Liberty University’s® Associate of Arts in Education program approaches the discipline of education from a Christian perspective to provide you with a firm foundation from which to understand educational development and behavior. You will gain insight into the development and influence of a Christian world view in education, as well as study current educational trends practiced in today’s private and public schools. Courses give you the opportunity to tap into the education by evaluating associated methods and interventions such as differentiated learning and direct instruction. You will be given the opportunity to create lesson plans and units for the purpose of educational planning.

The Associate of Arts in Education degree serves to provide a foundation of education that can assist a student in continuing into our Bachelor of Science in Education. The program also provides theories and methodology of Christian education that will assist those who will work in Christian, private and public child care facilities, churches and home.
