CMU receives approval to launch condensed BEd program

Canadian Mennonite University has announced that it will launch a condensed, 16-month Bachelor of Education after-degree program in 2026. The program curriculum will cover topics such as inclusive education, Indigenous perspectives, and adaptive teaching approaches. Students will take part in 28 weeks of practicum throughout the school year, with longer placements in rural and northern communities, where they will be paired with experienced mentor teachers. “Manitoba needs teachers who can work respectfully across differences, adapt creatively to diverse learning needs, and see education as a shared community project,” said CMU VP External Sandra Koop Harder. “This program answers that call.”
