The online Master of Arts in Learning Design and Technology program is designed to flexibly address various professional roles and settings. The certificate programs allow for differentiation based on your unique learning and professional interests and goals.

The LDT MA program and associated graduate certificate programs offer different plans of study to match various professional roles such as P-12 educators; college instructors; and learning designers in workplace and P-20 settings.

Delivered completely online, the 30 graduate-level credit hour LDT MA program includes combining certificate programs to flexibly address various professional roles and settings. Instead of an MA program that requires all students to complete a specific set of courses, this unique approach to the MA allows for differentiation based on your unique learning and professional interests and goals.

The MA concludes with a comprehensive thesis-in-practice experience (e.g., portfolio, culminating project, or thesis) in the final semester to demonstrate mastery of the following competencies: critical digital literacy; instructional design; leadership; and diversity, equity, and inclusion. Students also have available to them an applied learning design internship experience working with actual clients in our Learning Agency.
