The Graduate Certificate, Graduate Diploma and Master of Education are continuous programs with no scheduled breaks.

Students who complete the Graduate Certificate and the Graduate Diploma and who are subsequently accepted into the Master of Education program will be granted 24 units of laddering credit towards the Master’s degree. A direct entry into a 24-unit Graduate Diploma may be possible with the approval of Graduate Programs in Education.

For topics being offered and program delivery format for Graduate Certificates and Graduate Diplomas, please consult the Graduate Programs in Education website.
