Description

For some people, their passion for teaching emerges while they are pursuing other goals.  If you’ve already completed a degree but have a strong desire to become a teacher, our After Degree Program has been designed to help you achieve that dream. 

Here’s how it works:

See Figure 1 for a visual representation of the After Degree Program.

The program consists of 20* semester courses (60 credit hours) which consists of:

• Education 2500 (or its equivalent) which must be taken prior to admission
• Professional Semester One (PS I)
• Professional Semester Two  (PS II)
• Professional Semester Three (PS III)
• one Educational Foundation course
• three Education electives

NOTE: *You may be required to make up deficiencies in your teachable school subject major if the required number of courses was not complete, although acceptable, at the time of admission.  These courses will be over and above the 20 B.Ed. semester courses.

At the end of this student teaching and course work, you will be conferred with a Bachelor of Education.  Your dream of becoming a teacher will have been achieved, but the true joy of educating children is only just beginning.
