A:Several people have emailed me for information about the online program and informed me that the website has been down. It is back up and operational now so for additional information about the program, please visit the website at http://www.soe.umd.umich.edu/belinda/program.html It would appear that this course only accepts people with Michigan teacher's certificates. On the other hand, the Open University here in UK offers a distance learning MA in education with no prerequisites - also Advanced Diplomas in a range of areas, including inclusive education.
