History

The university started the School of Education in 1988, and added a Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) program in 1992. The Center for Excellence in Teaching (CET) program began in 1999 and offered graduate level courses for teaching professionals. Willamette's Master of Arts in Teaching program had both a full-time and part-time option with four focuses in early childhood, elementary for grades 3 to 8, middle level for grades 5 to 9, and secondary for grades 7 to 12. A part-time MAT option called Aspire was added in 2004.

Four MAT alums have been recipients of the Milken Family Foundation's Milken Educator Awards since 2000. The $25,000 award is given to educators who make efforts to furthering excellence in education.
