Program details

Overview

This program leads to a Bachelor of Education in Primary Teaching, aimed at people who already hold a bachelor's degree but lack a teaching credential and wish to gain a solid grounding in pedagogy. It is delivered part-time over roughly three and a half years, combining asynchronous and synchronous online instruction with project-based and cooperative learning activities, and is offered across the Edmundston, Moncton, and Shippagan regions. The foundation component covers child psychopedagogy, learning theories, French language proficiency, classroom management, inclusive education, and the professional foundations of teaching, while the teaching-formation component covers didactics in French, mathematics, science, social studies, visual arts, and music. Two practicum placements are built into the program: an initial classroom-management and exploration stage and a longer professional-integration internship. Admission requires sponsorship by a francophone school district with a commitment of employment. The program suits career-changers seeking certification to teach at the primary level in New Brunswick's francophone school system.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: This is a post-baccalaureate program. Applicants must hold a Canadian bachelor's degree or equivalent diploma with a minimum average of 2.30, be eligible for the provisional teaching certificate 4, and be recommended and hired by a New Brunswick francophone school district. If the prior bachelor's degree was not completed in French, applicants need DELF level B2. All tasks in course EDUC2003 must be passed with at least 76% on each task. Required documents: a CV showing relevant experience, a motivation letter, a letter of recommendation from the hiring francophone school district, and proof of eligibility for the provisional teaching certificate. To progress, students must maintain a cumulative weighted average of at least 2.5 over their first 18 credits.

Application Details

Application Deadline: Canadian and permanent-resident applicants apply directly to Université de Moncton by recurring annual deadlines that carry no published calendar year: 31 August for autumn-term entry and 5 January for winter-term entry, with the Baccalauréat en science infirmière (Nursing) and Baccalauréat en design intérieur due 1 February, and the 16-month Baccalauréat en éducation due 1 February at the Moncton campus or 30 June at Shippagan/Edmundston. International applicants must apply by 31 May for autumn entry and 30 September for winter entry, with the 16-month Baccalauréat en éducation due 1 February at Moncton or 31 May at Shippagan/Edmundston. Applications received after these dates are automatically deferred to the following session, and Université de Moncton may close applications earlier if volume is high, so admission is firm rather than rolling. The admissions page's only calendar-year reference is to the Automne 2026 term already under way (registration closes 4 September 2026, classes begin 9 September 2026), which places the source's current context in the 2026-27 academic year; the next occurrences of the recurring deadlines above therefore fall in Hiver 2027 and Automne 2027. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
