Project ECU LEAP provides an effective distance education program that leads students to an add-on license in EL. In-state rate tuition fees for the 15 graduate credit hours required to earn the add-on licensure are fully funded by this national professional development grant for students in Greene County who are accepted to participate. Coursework is delivered online and participants will meet face-to-face at various times and locations throughout the program.

Greene County teachers and administrators interested in this opportunity for tuition-free courses leading to an ESL license are invited to contact Dr. Jane Manner at East Carolina University (mannerj@ecu.edu or 252.328.5594). Teachers and administrators in other North Carolina Schools interested in participating in Project ECU LEAP are also encouraged to contact Dr. Jane Manner.
