Universal Design for Learning

The events of 2020-2021 have shown a light on the need to create inclusive environments for all of our students. As a result, the demand for the implementation of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is more prevalent than ever. Novak Education has partnered with Teachers College of San Joaquin to offer an online 13-unit certificate program to provide leaders and teachers with the skills and knowledge to stand out and establish themselves as expert learners committed to the implementation of UDL.
