University offering 'micro-credentials' and more accessible programming options to train more teachers
UNBC is considering different options and a more flexible approach to try to recruit more students to its education program.
“In conversation with superintendents of northern school districts throughout B.C., we know there are a lot of barriers for accessing education, particularly for folks living in rural and remote communities.” Last year, School District 57 permanently hired 20 uncertified teachers and also relied on a pool of 100 teacher on call to fill for teachers absent from classrooms due to illnesses or other reasons. Several of those uncertified teachers were hired before they completed their UNBC education degree.
UNBC is offering packages of four courses to give student teachers unable to commit to a full-time program their “micro-credentials” before they enter the grade school system.
