The Université du Québec à Montréal has redesigned its bachelor of secondary education program, converting the fourth year into a paid, supervised internship. This change aims to address the teacher shortage in Québec and support the successful integration of students into the profession. Program director Vincent Bernier explained that participants will have dual student-employee status during the internship period and will receive a contract, which enables them to take charge of their teaching experience. This change will be implemented starting in Fall 2025.
