Elementary Education

About

The Bachelor of Education Elementary Program is a two-year, 60-credit after-degree program and includes 26 weeks of practicum. The Elementary route is a generalist program that prepares graduates with the essential skills, knowledge, and attributes to teach kindergarten to grade 6. Graduates of our program are described by our school district partners as mature, confident and hardworking individuals who are committed to helping their students succeed. In addition to the strong knowledge skills and attributes expected of teachers, the program provides opportunities to understand the philosophy, spirituality and profession of teaching in Catholic and non-Catholic settings. Upon completing the program, students will earn a Bachelor of Education degree (BEd) and will be recommended for teacher certification in Alberta.
