Dr. Moutra credits CED’s Educational Leadership Ed.D. program with providing the necessary leadership tools to support the staff she now oversees. This support helps to ensure that the children in their centers receive the care and high-quality educational experiences they need. 

Sharing about the Educational Leadership program, Dr. Moutra says, “The cohort model was a true life saver. I made lifelong friends, the faculty and staff have been so amazing and super supportive. I have learned so much in this program. The experience has certainly been one for the books. I am soo happy that I chose this program.”
