INDIANAPOLIS - June 29, 2015 - PRLog -- American College of Education (http://www.ace.edu/), a leading online graduate degree provider for educators, is partnering with Charter Schools USA (http://charterschoolsusa.com/) (CSUSA) to provide over 7,000 CSUSA faculty and staff members with discounted tuition prices for its master’s, specialist, and doctoral degree programs.

“We believe that our nation’s teachers shouldn’t have to limit their pursuit of higher education due to tuition rates,” said Shawntel Landry, provost and interim president of American College of Education. “We want to provide all the resources we can to educators by making advanced degrees as accessible as possible, and our partnership with CSUSA is doing just that.”

American College of Education is one of five current university networks partnering with CSUSA, and will offer this opportunity to employees who meet certain eligibility requirements to be considered for an ACE program. CSUSA currently oversees 76 schools across the nation and represents nearly 59,000 students who will benefit directly from this professional development incentive.

“Our partnership with CSUSA will be far-reaching and valuable to those that we care about most – the students,” Landry said. “We have the chance to improve the education of thousands by providing quality higher education degrees to those who teach these students on a daily basis.”

American College of Education is one of the only online institutions in the nation specializing in advanced degrees in education, and has created a learning environment that provides teachers an opportunity to earn a master's, specialist or doctoral degree, or graduate certificate and learn relevant curriculum that can be applied immediately to their current jobs.
