Youth development leadership (YDL)

An M.Ed. for leaders in youth-serving organizations
Note: The YDL program is now located in the
Department of Curriculum and Instruction.
It can be found under the family, youth, and community field of
study. All YDL core
courses have new CI course designators. These replace the former
WCFE designators.
This program offers all youth workers—whether they are volunteers,
teachers, religious youth group leaders, social workers, or community
program directors—an opportunity to learn more about working with
and on behalf of youth. It is a degree designed by University faculty
and community youth work professionals.
Undergraduates interested in youth development may wish to
major in
youth studies, a degree-granting program within the School
of Social Work.
