The Graduate Diploma in Advanced Professional Studies in Education (GDE) programs are designed in collaboration with BC school districts for educators whose primary focus is school-based practice. The GDE provides educators with the opportunity to engage in focused, sustained, reflective inquiry into their practice within a 2-year cohort model program.

Classes are held in the evenings or on the weekends either in-person, online or in a combination of both.

Courses will embody the program's core foundations of relationship building, inquiry and collaborative learning.
