Administrator Licensure (PAL) program at SOU is to develop leaders who are prepared to lead educational transformation and cultivate equity, excellence, and wellbeing.<\/p>\n<p>SOU\u2019s PAL program offers meaningful opportunities for students to integrate the theories of educational change with the day-to-day practice of educational administration. Classes are experiential in nature and involve a combination of case studies, authentic projects \u2013 where students participate in school improvement at their location, and extensive use of panels and discussions with school leaders.<\/p>\n<p>A distinct advantage of the SOU PAL program is the culture of collegiality, where fellow students develop supportive relationships with one another and with their instructors who can meet the needs and interests of the cohort. Students work with regional administrators, whom they get to know, making job placement easy to navigate.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<div  class='avia-button-wrap av-k3w1yv-9541ba01c22a6329d86d45646fad0ffe-wrap avia-button-left  avia-builder-el-13  el_after_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-last '><a href="https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/education\/programs\/ial-cal\/principal-administrator-license-admission-and-applications\/"  class='avia-button av-k3w1yv-9541ba01c22a6329d86d45646fad0ffe av-link-btn avia-icon_select-no avia-size-large avia-position-left avia-color-theme-color'   aria-label=\"APPLY TO THE PAL PROGRAM\"><span class='avia_iconbox_title' >APPLY TO THE PAL PROGRAM<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/p><\/div>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-r5ixdz-7d02e16373b05420b3565924905d5aaa\">\n.flex_column.av-r5ixdz-7d02e16373b05420b3565924905d5aaa{\nborder-radius:0px 0px 0px 0px;\npadding:0px 0px 0px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='flex_column av-r5ixdz-7d02e16373b05420b3565924905d5aaa av_three_fifth  avia-builder-el-14  el_after_av_two_fifth  avia-builder-el-last  flex_column_div av-zero-column-padding  '     ><p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-p65hdz-129d964b9fc2ed4cba5cfa5746094c84\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-p65hdz-129d964b9fc2ed4cba5cfa5746094c84{\npadding-bottom:0;\nfont-size:24px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-p65hdz-129d964b9fc2ed4cba5cfa5746094c84 .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-p65hdz-129d964b9fc2ed4cba5cfa5746094c84 .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:24px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-p65hdz-129d964b9fc2ed4cba5cfa5746094c84 .av-subheading{\nfont-size:14px;\n}\n\n@media only screen and (min-width: 480px) and (max-width: 767px){ \n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-p65hdz-129d964b9fc2ed4cba5cfa5746094c84 .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:0.8em;\n}\n}\n\n@media only screen and (max-width: 479px){ \n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-p65hdz-129d964b9fc2ed4cba5cfa5746094c84 .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:0.8em;\n}\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-p65hdz-129d964b9fc2ed4cba5cfa5746094c84 av-special-heading-h3 blockquote modern-quote  avia-builder-el-15  el_before_av_textblock  avia-builder-el-first  ital-subhead av-inherit-size av-linked-heading'><h3 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >The PAL Program<\/h3><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-osmq8n-6f9e5c793a2c587f7132cf367455d45f '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock right-pillow'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>SOU\u2019s School of Education offers programs for the Principal Administrator License (PAL) issued by the Oregon Teacher Standards and Practices Commission (TSPC). The PAL is a 40-credit, cohort-based program that begins each June and continues through six quarter terms, ending a year and half later in December. This meeting format is a combination of in person and online.<\/p>\n<p>The PAL coursework (40 hours) is largely experiential and project-based, making it engaging and relevant. The required practicum hours (300) enable students to move from theoretical foundations into actual practice at a variety of school levels. You will meet and work with regional administrators and build relationships that get you hired as a leader when you complete the program.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"heavy-man\">Meeting Times and Format<\/span><br \/>\nThe PAL is designed to accommodate working educators through a combination of online coursework and <em>in-person<\/em> meetings. For the first summer, the PAL program typically meets 9 days in June (including five in person day retreat to build cohort connection) and 6 days online in July. After those 15 summer days, you will have completed almost \u00bc of all the credits in the PAL program!! The summer program will prepare you to begin your practicum for the school year.<\/p>\n<p>During the school year, PAL meets approximately once a month for one Friday evening a month <em>online<\/em> and one Saturday a month from 9am &#8211; 3pm <em>in person<\/em>, making the program manageable and enjoyable.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"heavy-man\">Program Prerequisites and Requirements<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Minimum undergraduate GPA of 3.0<\/li>\n<li>Teaching license or eligibility to hold a license<\/li>\n<li>Three years of teaching experience (preferably)<\/li>\n<li>A master\u2019s degree in education,OR enrollment in the SOU MSEd with PAL concentration program<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span class=\"heavy-man\">For those desiring a master\u2019s degree, it can be completed through the PAL program by taking one additional 5 credit course at the end of the PAL coursework.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Students who do not have a master\u2019s degree may enroll concurrently in the Master of Science in Education (MSEd) program. The 40 credits for the PAL coursework are all applied toward the completion of the MSEd program, which then requires one additional 5 credit course, for a total of 45 credits.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"heavy-man\">Costs and Funding<\/span><br \/>\nFor 糖心传媒 teachers who are interested in becoming licensed administrators there are funding opportunities to help pay for tuition.<br \/>\nTo learn more about the PAL program and\/or potential funding opportunities, contact PAL Coordinator, Dr. Renee Owen at\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:owenr@sou.edu\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">owenr@sou.edu<\/a>. For most 糖心传媒 teachers, the SOU PAL program is the most affordable option for an administrative license.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<div  class='avia-button-wrap avia-button-center  avia-builder-el-17  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_button  dig-20'>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-2s2a13-1cfbf15d1aff289bc6050f584e26c766\">\n#top #wrap_all .avia-button.av-2s2a13-1cfbf15d1aff289bc6050f584e26c766:hover{\ncolor:white;\ntransition:all 0.4s ease-in-out;\n}\n<\/style>\n<a href="https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/e\/1FAIpQLSdF3U6j5pwA0WpYJ4x8eGFa4g-uh3LfO_MTKpRaamRmnSsfOQ\/viewform" class='avia-color-dark avia-font-color-theme-color avia-button avia-button-fullwidth av-2s2a13-1cfbf15d1aff289bc6050f584e26c766 avia-icon_select-no avia-color-dark'  target=\"_blank\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"  aria-label=\"REQUEST INFO ABOUT THE PAL PROGRAM\"><span class='avia_iconbox_title' >REQUEST INFO ABOUT THE PAL PROGRAM<\/span><span class='avia_button_background avia-button avia-button-fullwidth avia-color-theme-color-highlight'><\/span><\/a><\/div><br \/>\n<div  class='avia-button-wrap av-2q6rh3-e719e8a5c23326f39bc4596752c89a5b-wrap avia-button-left  avia-builder-el-18  el_after_av_button_big  el_before_av_image  avia-builder-el-first '><a href="https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/education\/programs\/ial-cal\/principal-administrator-license-admission-and-applications\/"  class='avia-button av-2q6rh3-e719e8a5c23326f39bc4596752c89a5b av-link-btn avia-icon_select-no avia-size-large avia-position-left avia-color-theme-color'   aria-label=\"APPLY TO THE PAL PROGRAM\"><span class='avia_iconbox_title' >APPLY TO THE PAL PROGRAM<\/span><\/a><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-iyaa7r-aa3aa1908a0f8dd7aca9779fb9c31af1\">\n.avia-image-container.av-iyaa7r-aa3aa1908a0f8dd7aca9779fb9c31af1 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-iyaa7r-aa3aa1908a0f8dd7aca9779fb9c31af1 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-iyaa7r-aa3aa1908a0f8dd7aca9779fb9c31af1 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-19  el_after_av_button  el_before_av_textblock '   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/PAL-at-a-glance-slide-2026.webp 1920w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/PAL-at-a-glance-slide-2026-300x169.webp 300w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/PAL-at-a-glance-slide-2026-1030x579.webp 1030w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/PAL-at-a-glance-slide-2026-768x432.webp 768w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/PAL-at-a-glance-slide-2026-1536x864.webp 1536w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/PAL-at-a-glance-slide-2026-1500x844.webp 1500w,https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/PAL-at-a-glance-slide-2026-705x397.webp 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/PAL-at-a-glance-slide-2026.jpg\" height=\"1080\" width=\"1920\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/PAL-at-a-glance-slide-2026.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/PAL-at-a-glance-slide-2026-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/PAL-at-a-glance-slide-2026-1030x579.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/PAL-at-a-glance-slide-2026-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/PAL-at-a-glance-slide-2026-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/PAL-at-a-glance-slide-2026-1500x844.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/sou.edu\/academics\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/14\/2026\/03\/PAL-at-a-glance-slide-2026-705x397.jpg 705w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" class=\"wp-image-103812 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-103812 avia_image  sp-no-webp\" alt=\"PAL program at a glance. 18 months, 40 credit hours, $460 approximate cost per credit hour. 6 terms: Starting June, ending December, 1.5 years later.
