Graduate Diploma in Teaching Science and Technology at the Secondary Level

This graduate diploma prepares practicing teachers to instruct science and technology at the secondary level. Delivered fully online over 30 credits on a part-time basis, the program develops knowledge in science and technology didactics and educational sciences, alongside classroom and learning-management competencies. Students analyze their teaching practice through reflection and apply evidence-based pedagogical strategies specific to secondary science and technology instruction. The program is restricted to candidates already employed as non-legally-qualified teachers in Quebec school boards or private schools, teaching secondary science or technology. Admission is offered for the fall and winter terms only, and coursework is delivered entirely at a distance, allowing students to continue teaching while completing the diploma. Some courses are introduced progressively as they are developed.
