Program Curriculum:

The program curriculum for the CE program at McMaster University is shaped by the Royal College requirements for the program.

The competency-based design of the AFC program allows candidates to finish the program earlier, as long as they successfully complete the unit tasks, assignments and portfolio activities. Depending on candidate’s tailored circumstances, some units may be completed concurrently.

The CE Diploma program consists of 4 mandatory units (click on each unit to go to the description and resources page):

      1. Foundations
      2. Teaching & Learning
      3. Curriculum
      4. Assessment

Each unit is anticipated to take the candidate 2-3 months to complete.

There are 3 prescribed selective experiences, with each candidate selecting 2 of these 3 units:

      1. Simulation
      2. Leadership
      3. Education Scholarship.

The total duration of this elective time is anticipated to take 6 months.
