The master's program is a two-year, evening and summer-intensive program for the working professional.  Students move through their course work as a cohort and complete course work on the BYU campus.

The curriculum is both theory and practice based. The teacher education core provides teachers with an understanding of the theories and practices related to their professional assignment and space for considering their role as educators. The research core includes courses in research methods, statistics, qualitative data analysis, and culminates in a thesis.
