Does anyone know of a college/university that actually has a degree program at the Masters level or above for Dyslexia Education, or a similar program? I am looking into gettting my 6th Year, and that is truly what I would like to specialize in, but from what I can tell there isn’t one available, at least not in my area. If anyone knows of such a program please let me know. Thanks! Jenn

Thanks Janis! I had done a search, but I must have been using the wrong terms. I can’t wait to see what these are like. Jenn

I’m not sure a college or university is the way to go… I’d check out a school like The New Community School or Greenwood (though I have a slight prejudice towards the co-ed environment of TNCS since girls tend to have their own kinds of issues).
Fairleigh Dickinson University has a Dyslexia Specialist Certificate:

Here’s another in TN:

You may find more just by doing a search.
