Caldwell University offers solutions with nationally accredited programs, including several available 100% online.

We offer flexible yet challenging career-related degrees and programs that prepare students with the advanced knowledge and skills appropriate to their specific professional goals. The hallmarks of a Caldwell University education are small class sizes, individual attention, and a quality faculty and staff committed to our students.

Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)
Our master’s, post-master’s, and doctoral programs in Applied Behavior Analysis provide students with the skills and experiences to become leaders in the field. Caldwell is one of only eight schools worldwide with Association for Behavior Analysis International (ABAI) accreditation in both master’s and doctoral programs. Our master’s and post-master’s programs meet the requirements to prepare graduates to become Board Certified Behavior Analysts. Students enrolled in an ABA program may have the opportunity to learn and work in the Caldwell University Center for Autism & Applied Behavior Analysis.
Counseling
All three areas of Caldwell’s graduate Counseling programs have received accreditation from the Council for Accreditation of Counseling & Related Educational Programs (CACREP). In fact, our Master of Arts in Counseling with a specialization in Mental Health Counseling/Art Therapy was the first Art Therapy program in the country to hold CACREP accreditation. Professional school counselors are certified/licensed educators with a minimum of a master’s degree in School Counseling.
Nursing
