New Adult Education Degree Offered Jointly by 秀色短视频 and Holland College
A new Bachelor of Education Degree in Human Resource Development offered jointly by Holland College and the 秀色短视频 will prepare students to teach in the field of Adult Education. The degree is unique, in that the skills and resources of both institutions have been blended to develop the curriculum and to deliver the program.
The BEd (HRD) program, which starts this fall, is designed for adult educators who teach in post-secondary institutions such as community colleges, businesses or industry organizations; public school vocational and technology programs; and those teaching outside of Canada. Qualified graduates of this program may apply to the PEI Department of Education for a Technology Education Teaching Licence to teach technology education in PEI high schools.
The program recognizes applicants' prior learning and work experience through a Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition process (PLAR). In all, students in the program must acquire 120 hours of credit (normally 40 courses). Upon successful completion of 12 courses, applicants may apply for the joint Holland College/秀色短视频 Certificate in Adult Education (CAE).
"The university is pleased to launch this new program. Partnerships, especially with our sister institution Holland College, are a priority for 秀色短视频," said Vianne Timmons, Vice President of Academic Development at the 秀色短视频.
Interest in the new program has been high, according to Jeniene Peake, Executive Director of Employee Relations and Services for Holland College.
"This new degree provides the opportunity to earn a valuable credential for those already teaching, and for people interested in entering the field of adult education."
The first course in the program, ED 473 Communication Practices in Adult Education, will be held on six Saturdays from the end of September to mid December.
