with a degree in education

Depending on the context, it might be possible to paraphrase slightly? "Pedagogue" is probably the most literal/precise translation, but in my opinion it's not that widely used (at least not in the UK).

diplomaed educationalist or pedagogue (in addition to likely KudoZ glossary entries)

the number of possibilities seems to be endless
Note from asker:
kim was kind, richard direct.. I cannot use either, indeed I looked in the glossary before posting and nothing cam up..very strange
Peer comment(s):

disagree Kim Metzger : The terms "diplomaed pedagogue" or "diplomaed educationalist" wouldn't be used by an educated native speaker of English./Changed to disagree. You can conclude that you should listen and learn from native speakers who know the subject.

Аm I to conclude that Collins G-E,E-G dictionary was issued for uneducated people only ?
disagree Richard Benham : ...or even an uneducated one!//Dictionaries are a resource, not an authority!//Each of your proposed translations gets exactly one Google hit: this question!

pls. see my question to Kim
neutral Ken McKerrow : I agree with Kim, however I am surprised at how many hits it gets! I hesitated to respond either way, thinking perhaps it was a very UK usage, but it seems mainly to appear on translated pages..I wouldn't put my name on it

disagree Lancashireman : ‘Pedagogue’ is just about as non-native as it gets. Diplomaed looks strange but sounds less so.

neutral Kim Metzger : "Pedagogue" and "pedagogy" are rarely used these days. The key word is "education."

Agree with you Kim! As the job descriptions even in the US contained "certified pedagogue", I thought I would try a hit on it! But "education" is the word!
