Welcome to the Department of Education

Inspire the Next Generation

The Department of Education prepares students for fulfilling careers working with families and children from kindergarten through high school. On top of graduating teachers into the classroom with a home-grown degree in elementary education, the Department provides pathways for students to pursue career paths as administrators, childcare professionals, and support workers for children who require assistance in developmental, behavioural, and learning tasks.

With flexible learning options available in our Educational Assistant and Early Learning and Child Care pathways, students can take courses online, at their own pace, and continue working in the field.

All our programs include practical learning opportunities, launching students into careers with real-world experience and the skills to succeed in several areas of education. These include early learning and childcare, elementary school with rural and Indigenous themes, and combined degrees focusing on Native Studies, Drama, Kinesiology, and Science.
