Concurrent Education 

Queen’s Concurrent Education is a five-year + one summer term program that prepares secondary school graduates to become educators and qualify for Ontario College of Teachers certification. Our graduates are out into the job market a year earlier, since most other Ontario faculties of education offer their programs over 6 years with typical fall/winter semesters.

With Queen’s ConEd, you will be working on two degrees at the same time â€“ an Honours Bachelor of Arts (including French), Science (including Kinesiology), or Music, and a Bachelor of Education degree – both from day one! The BEd degree from Queen’s is widely accepted for teacher certification across Canada and around the world. What makes Queen’s grads more marketable is that they will all graduate with a concentration in one subject area. 

Concurrent Education students can apply for a program track in their final year. Program tracks include , , , and .
