Abstract
Two diverse universities - one large public metropolitan and one small independent - participate in the Carnegie Project on the Education Doctorate (CPED) the purpose of which is to clearly distinguish between the Ph.D. and the Ed.D. and their unique intended outcomes. These universities (re)designed and implemented the professional doctorate (Ed.D.) in educational leadership aligned with the CPED concepts. Development processes, experiences in (re)design and implementation, as well as the resulting degree requirements are compared. Significant changes in student learning experiences, student outcomes, and the capstone experience are commonalities of each university's newly (re)designed Ed.D.
