Program details
Overview
Université de Saint-Boniface's Certificat d'auxiliaire d'enseignement is a one-year, 23-credit certificate that prepares students to work as teaching assistants in Manitoba primary, intermediate, and secondary schools. The program emphasizes inclusive education, covering Indigenous perspectives, gender diversity, and multicultural representation, and teaches intervention strategies for supporting students with varied needs. Theoretical courses are delivered in the evening Monday to Thursday in a hybrid, bimodal format, allowing students outside Winnipeg to attend in class, at a distance, or through a combination of both. The program includes two mandatory two-week workplace practicums in schools. Students already working as teaching assistants may receive recognition of prior learning toward the certificate. Full-time completion takes one year, with a part-time option extending up to five years. It suits Manitoba residents, including current education support workers, who want a credential to work as a teaching assistant, particularly within French-language and French-immersion schools.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Canadian citizens, permanent residents, and refugees need a Manitoba high school diploma (or an accepted equivalent from another Canadian province or territory); completion of French 40S and English 40S is strongly recommended. Applicants educated outside Canada need the equivalent of a Manitoba secondary diploma from their country of origin and must satisfy the institution's French language requirement; good knowledge of English is recommended but not mandatory. The program is not open to applicants from abroad who would require a study permit.
