Work to bring about systemic change
Antioch University’s Graduate Certificate in Humane Education will help you develop expertise in the foundations of humane education and enable students to raise awareness and educate effectively about the interconnected issues that affect people, animals, and the environment, with the goal of bringing about long-term, systemic change.
This Certificate is offered by Antioch University, New England, in partnership with the Institute for Humane Education.

Antioch University’s Graduate Certificate in Humane Education comprises five foundational courses, which can be transferred into the MA or M.Ed degree if you wish to continue on for your master’s degree.
