The Bachelor of Education (BEd) program at Crandall University is one of the most respected teacher preparation programs in Eastern Canada. A Crandall Education degree prepares you to teach in virtually any classroom, anywhere.

The goal of our Bachelor of Education program is to graduate teachers who will become student-centered educational leaders with a commitment to the important mission of educating generations to come.

Upon successful completion of the Bachelor of Education degree, you will be well prepared to take on teaching challenges in a broad range of classroom settings. You will also be eligible to apply for a New Brunswick Level 5 Teaching Certificate, which equips you to teach in the elementary or secondary school classroom.

Program Highlights

  • Education professors stay abreast of current literature and methodology discussed in professional journals so our students learn the very latest techniques and approaches.
  • Students learn to use the latest classroom technology including such resources as digital document cameras and infrared classroom sound amplification.
  • The program includes 17 weeks in the classroom – 2 weeks of observation and 15 consecutive weeks of actual teaching experience. Students complete their first semester course work before they are in a classroom so they can get maximum benefit from their observations.

We apologize for any inconvenience.
