overview<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The graduate certificate in Classroom-based Comprehensive Literacy Practices is designed for PreK-12 teachers working in schools supported by Maine Partnerships in Comprehensive Literacy (MPCL) coaches. This hybrid program involves face-to-face, on-site and online coursework, providing classroom teachers with the knowledge and skills to refine and enhance their literacy instruction. There are approximately 40 building-based MPCL coaches working in Maine schools and districts statewide. By leveraging the MPCL school-improvement model, teachers \u2014 working collaboratively with literacy coaches \u2014 will be better prepared to meet the needs of students and improve their students&#8217; achievement. Some coursework in this certificate may be applied toward a Master of Education (M.Ed.) degree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ideal candidates for the Classroom-based Comprehensive Literacy Practices certificate include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>PreK-12 educators at all levels who work in schools and\/or districts with an MPCL coach<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>PreK-12 educators at all levels who
