Adult Education

Course Overview

We are Canada's first self-directed master's program offered through distance education. Since our inception in 1970, our curriculum has evolved from a traditional format consisting of 10 courses to one that is experiential and individualized wherein students design and implement their own content curriculum. The Master of Adult Education has a professional development focus. It is a self-directed, distance learning program, with a 3 week residential requirement, wherein students design, implement, and evaluate their own content curriculum. Students choose learning projects and goals on the basis of their own experiences and interests in consultation with their advisor. Students have a 5 year candidacy period within which to complete all program requirements.
