Elementary 2-Year Program

This option prepares generalist teachers for teaching in Kindergarten to grade 7. Teacher candidates in this option teach in all subject areas in the elementary curriculum including Core French in grades 5-7.

Diversity CohortThe 2-Year Elementary option has at least 74-76 credits of coursework and includes a 12-credit teaching concentration in addition to the basic program from among: Early Childhood/Primary, English as a Second Language, Expressive Arts, Humanities, Math & Science, Special Education (not all concentrations offered each year). Experience shows that having a specialization as well as the basic program can be valuable when applying for teaching positions.

  • This program is two academic years in duration, with a summer break (May-August) in the first year. Course sequence may vary and is determined by the cohort standard timetable. Courses may not be taken towards a BEd during the summer. Vacations, weddings and other personal events must not conflict with classes or practica.

Teacher Candidates in our BEd program options may apply for Alternative or International Practica Placements.
