Description:

The developmental disabilities program is strongly tied to our college mission to prepare educational and mental health leaders who demonstrate the knowledge, skills and dispositions needed to serve others and who further the values and practices of their respective professions.

The developmental disabilities program is comprised of 124 credit hours of coursework. Students will receive a liberal arts-based curriculum with a focus on the delivery of services to individuals with disabilities within an agency setting. The program includes a culminating practicum within a partnering agency and a related seminar where students will be provided with training that will lead to various certifications in the areas of Medicaid, Investigative Training, and Strategies for Crisis Intervention and Prevention (SCIP).
