The off-campus Bachelor of Education cohorts are designed specifically for the elementary stream. Anyone interested in becoming a secondary teacher is welcome to apply to the on-campus program. The off-campus cohorts are hosted in various parts of Nova Scotia, offered over the course of three years, and is considered full-time with classes running weekends (in-person) and some evenings (virtually). Each of the four practicum is a five-week long, full-time commitment. As such, you would need to plan to take breaks from any daytime employment for the duration of each filed experience placement. Placements have an increase in teaching responsibilities, starting from 25% in the first placement and moving to 100%.
