About Montessori Institute of Atlanta
The Montessori Institute of Atlanta has offered teacher-training courses since 1968. Beginning by offering Primary (ages 2½–6+) courses, MIA has also offered a course for Assistants to Infancy (birth–3 years), and is now offering courses for those who wish to teach at the Elementary (ages 6–12) level.
Since its inception, all of MIA's courses have been accredited by the Association Montessori Internationale (AMI), headquartered in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Founded in 1929 by Dr. Maria Montessori and her son and collaborator, Mario Montessori, AMI is the world-recognized authority in Montessori education. Montessori Institute of Atlanta is committed to the maintenance of AMI traditions and high standards of teacher training. MIA is also accredited by Montessori Accreditation Council for Teacher Education (MACTE). MACTE is the international standard setting and accrediting body for Montessori teacher education. MACTE was granted initial recognition by the U.S. Department of Education in 1995. |
