Graduate Diploma in Advanced Professional Studies in Education
This diploma program, administered through Field Programs, consists of a minimum of 30 units in 500 division EDPR courses. (The total units may vary, depending on the program content but will not be less than 30 units of 500 division EDPR courses.) Course work from other programs or universities may not be transferred into this graduate diploma program.
Graduate diploma programs are developed in co-operation with other educational partners (e.g. school districts and consortia, Ministry of Education regional offices) and all courses are offered at off-campus sites. Each program addresses a theme that is relevant to the educational community. Students normally progress through the program as a cohort. Significant program portions may be supported via the Internet. Students who are unable to follow a cohort must complete 30 units, at least 18 of which must be in the given theme.
Admission
The minimum admission requirements are
• a bachelor’s degree from a recognized university
• a teaching certificate based on a recognized teacher preparation program, and
• submitted evidence of the student’s ability to undertake advanced work in education.
Under exceptional circumstances, applicants without a teaching certificate but having a bachelor’s degree and significant teaching or leadership experience in education (e.g. in a pre-school or post-secondary setting) may be accepted into the program.
