The Duncan NITEP Centre is located at the Cowichan Campus of Vancouver Island University (VIU). This centre is unique in that students are registered in two institutions at the same time: UBC and VIU. Students who apply to NITEP to attend the Duncan centre must also apply to VIU for admission. Students enroll at VIU to complete arts and/or science courses that relate to elementary or secondary school subjects. They also enroll in UBC education courses and educational field placements. After completing the required courses at the Duncan centre, students transfer to the UBC Vancouver campus to complete the remaining years of their UBC BEd degree requirements. They also have the option of transferring into the VIU Bachelor of Education offered at the VIU Nanaimo Campus.

Information about VIU can be found at the following website: www.viu.ca.
