Students choose one of three specialization streams: Early Years (Kindergarten to Grade 4), Middle Years (Grades 5 to 8), or Senior Years (Grades 9 to 12), aligning their coursework with the age group they intend to teach. The program combines education coursework with a field experience component in which students gain classroom-based teaching practice. Completion leads to full teaching certification. It is delivered on campus at Brandon University in Brandon, Manitoba, and is aimed at degree-holders and career changers seeking to move into the teaching profession rather than students entering directly from high school.
