hen morning school bells ring across the nation, more than 3,000 Regent alums answer the call to teach. Since its founding in 1980, the university’s graduate School of Education (SOE) has experienced outstanding success, training teachers and administrators to become Christian leaders who are, quite literally, changing the world. In May, U.S. News & World Report named Regent’s School of Education the highest-ranked Virginia university for faculty credentials and training. The digital magazine also ranked SOE’s online graduate program first in Virginia and eighth in the nation overall.

Dr. Alan Arroyo, dean of SOE, says the school’s “four pillars” are the driving force behind its three decades of success: “In everything, we endeavor to seek knowledge and wisdom, as well as serve and edify others with Christ at the center of all we think and do. Our courses are built around that framework, and alumni tell us that they learned to live and apply the pillars in their personal and professional practices.”
