Civics Foundations Graduate Consortium
Affordable, accessible, content-based graduate education for K-12 teachers
Mastering Civics
The Graduate Consortium is a partnership of universities committed to offering graduate education opportunities to K-12 civics and history teachers. Consortium courses are taught by top scholars at universities across the country and are designed to help teachers deepen their knowledge of topics in American civics and history from the founding era to modern American political thought. The virtual courses emphasize content mastery and teaching with primary sources.

Whether you are interested in a single course or pursuing a content-based degree, the Consortium will bolster your subject knowledge and support your professional growth as a K-12 educator.
Affordable & accessible graduate education
The Jack Miller Center supports teachers in the Consortium by covering tuition, funding scholarships, and offering awards.
