Bachelor of Education and Bachelor of Physical and Health Education in Sudbury Canada | Laurentian University

To teach in Ontario's publicly-funded schools, aspiring educators must obtain a Bachelor of Education (B.Ed.) from an Ontario College of Teachers-accredited institution. This credential opens doors to teaching positions not only across Canada but internationally as well. Laurentian University's English School of Education stands among the select provincial institutions offering a concurrent B.Ed. program. Participants begin with a 4-year undergraduate degree while simultaneously completing education courses, workshops, and school placements throughout Ontario. This five-year integrated approach exposes students to diverse educational environments, helping them determine if teaching aligns with their career aspirations. Students who decide to withdraw can still finish their four-year undergraduate degree.
Concurrent education students at Laurentian must maintain at least a B average to progress to the Professional Year, alongside meeting all other program requirements. The English program within the Faculty of Education and HealthFaculté d'éducation et de la santé provides academic guidance through an undergraduate advisor and director. Our rigorous preparation ensures Professional Year candidates enter the teaching field with exceptional readiness.
