I like the competency format, because it can be more affordable (provided you complete it quickly).
Are there any master's degrees in Education (e.g. MEd, MAT) that can be completed via a competency-based model, outside of WGU?
I'm sure WGU probably has a good program, but in my workplace, management regards it as similar to UoPhoenix. Maybe that has to do with them running so many television ads, it makes the program lose respectability.

Not exact, but close.
It is regionally accredited via the RA schools they're partnered with as those schools issue the degrees and transcripts. The "national accreditation" they're referring to is CAEP. They don't appear to realize what using that term means in the broader context of higher education, but it's a minor thing.

Do you know if the University of Colorado will appear as the school listed on the diploma?

I was going to recommend ACE - American College of Education as they currently have a deal going on until August 11. Furthermore, there is a chance to win a $1000 from Climb. Link:

Colorado State University - Pueblo for the PE-Health degree. It appears that different program's degrees come from different partner schools.

Unless they've never heard of Capella or Walden, your colleagues will probably have the same opinion of those schools. They might not know that UAGC used to be Ashford.
