Graduate Education Courses

 

Please register as early as possible. New students should create an account at least one week in advance of the course start date to allow ample time to receive credentials and register for the course. Interested in applying to one of our programs? Please see additional program information below and visit our Graduate Admissions page.


All Graduate Education classes will meet in-person unless otherwise noted. Courses identified as ONLINE will meet synchronously unless otherwise noted. Please see the Graduate Education (GED) and TESOL (GSL) schedule below. The TESOL schedule may also be found here.

Fall 2023 registration is now open. Please REGISTER EARLY to ensure a spot in the course(s) you plan to take. Matriculated students, new students who have paid their enrollment deposit, and non-matriculated students who have taken a graduate course at SMC in the past year may register through KnightVision Self-Service (KVSS). Students not enrolled in a program who have not taken a graduate course at SMC before and those who have not taken a course in the past year must submit the Request for Account/Pre-Registration form to receive access to KVSS. They will then register through KVSS. Please register early! It can take up to a week after the form is submitted, and longer over holiday breaks, to complete the registration process and have access to the online learning management system (Canvas). Course confirmations come from the Registrar’s Office.
