= Teachable Major/Minor Requirements =

Officially we require 30 of 33 credits completed in the teachable major, and 9 of 18 credits in the teachable minor. However, we will allow a student who needs 12 credits to complete both the teachable major and minor in any combination into the program, as long as the teachable major and minor are ones that can be done here. So a student might have a complete teachable minor, but be missing 12 credits in the teachable major and still be admissible.

= Special Status BEd Students =

We have been approached by a number of students who approach us about completing a limited number of courses and practica in our education program, but not completing a full degree. This desire usually arises from the individual having applied for certification, and having been refused by the Teacher Education and Certification branch of Alberta Education.

We are willing to consider such students in our program on a limited basis. These students should complete a new application form that Kara will provide shortly. In that they will need to demonstrate:
<ul>
<li>Possession of a degree from a recognized institution (official transcripts required)</li>
<li>The deficiency letter from Alberta Education (a copy is sufficient)</li>
<li>A BEd recommendation</li>
<li>A demonstration of English Proficiency (the standards for this are as in the Calendar)</li>
<li>A statement of philosophy of education</li>
</ul>

The letter from Alberta Education may indicate that English proficiency is required for certification at a lower level than what we require; it is our standard that holds for admission.

These will technically be unclassified students, and as such they have last priority in courses which are full. As our programs fill and in some particular education courses even now, this may mean that we “bump” these students in favour of full program students.

In CrossRoad, we will note these as having OK or Probation status, the latter for students with borderline proficiency. The basis of the decision will be Unclassified, and we will add UNDE as the minor to distinguish these from other BEd students.
