Шаблон:Short description The School of Education at American University is accredited by the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP) and by the Office of the State Superintendent of Education (OSSE). The school offers undergraduate, master's, and doctoral degrees, as well as a post-masters graduate certificate in "Anti-Racist Administration and School Leadership."[1] The school also runs a Center For Postsecondary Readiness and Success[2][3][4] which "concentrates its research, professional development opportunities, and knowledge dissemination on improving the postsecondary opportunities for students who are historically disenfranchised and underrepresented on college campuses",[3] and an Institute for Innovation in Education,[5] which "conducts educational and translational research and administers research-informed professional development initiatives to improve teaching and learning in Washington, DC and beyond."[6]

The School of Education is located on the 4th Floor of American University's Spring Valley Building, located at 4801 Massachusetts Avenue, NW, about one mile from the main campus.
