The Art of Education, www.theartofed.com, has partnered with Morningside to offer convenient and relevant online professional development courses to art teachers from all around the world. AOE classes are designed by art teachers, for art teachers, and provide research, application and connection with other art educators involving topics that matter most to art teachers practicing today.

These courses are designed for professional growth and may be used for licensure renewal or salary advancement if permitted in your district and/or state. Graduate credits earned through theartofed.com may also be used as part of a master's degree program at Morningside College.
