Klingenstein Center, Teachers College, Columbia University

Since 1977, the Klingenstein Center has offered extraordinary independent and international school educators the opportunity to shape their careers, their schools and their profession by focusing on leadership. By recognizing and cultivating the contributions and potential of beginning teachers, mid-career administrators and seasoned heads equally, the Center affirms and furthers the belief that strong schools require thoughtful leadership throughout. The Klingenstein Center offers two master's degree programs in independent school leadership, and fully-funded two week fellowship programs for heads of independent schools and early career teachers.
