Program Details

  • application of theory to practice

  • human resources and organizational systems
  • conflict resolution and counselling skills
  • curriculum development and implementation

Looking to add to their learning, appreciative of progressive approaches to cross curricular learning, and wanting to position as an educator with a passion for problem solving and innovation. Plus you don’t mind getting your hands a little dirty?
The Graduate Certificate in Industrial Arts and Applied Design Instruction will use some existing MEd Leadership in Education courses, allowing graduates of the certificate program to earn 17 credits and then continue on to the MEd Leadership in Education degree, should they wish to do so.

Effective In-Class Learning

The MEd programs in both BC and Alberta are comprised of 18 courses over a two-year period, including three working internships and a capstone paper. Students will complete their studies in a cohort comprised of learners working together under the leadership of faculty members. The program includes three internships, where students are mentored by both a CityU faculty member and a leader based in a school or district office. Graduates of the MEd Leadership in Education program have found employment as department or curriculum leaders and lead teachers, vice principals, principals, as well as other educational career advancements.

British Columbia Locations:

Offered in a mixed delivery mode format with in-person classroom sessions on Saturdays and online elements throughout the week.
This allows flexibility if you want to keep your teaching job while completing your degree program.

Alberta Locations:

The MEd program is offered in a cohort based environment conducted Friday nights and Saturday full days, approximately every other weekend.
We believe that it is necessary to take our program to the students who live outside of the larger urban areas; therefore, we will offer a program where the number of students show the need for a cohort.

Where CityU Can Take You

Graduates of our program go on to expand their educational reach as curriculum leaders, lead teachers, principals, vice principals, district directors, superintendents and assistant superintendents. Those who complete our approved program are also candidates for salary upgrade through both Teacher Qualification Service (BC) and Teacher Qualification Service (AB).
