Interested in French Immersion at UBC but you don’t live in the Lower Mainland?

No problem!

We are proud to announce that the M.Ed in Modern Language Education – French (FRM2) cohort is now available to those not living in the Lower Mainland.

“You can now join this program even if you live outside the Vancouver/Lower Mainland area.

In response to requests from French teachers living outside the Lower Mainland area, we have decided to expand access to this program by offering courses both face-to-face and – this is the new part – via teleconferencing. As a result, participation for full credit is now possible for teachers throughout BC and across Canada. The only technical requirement is a reliable high-speed Internet connection to enable live video/audio delivery of lectures.

To permit teachers who are interested in the teleconferencing option to apply, we are extending the application deadline to Thursday, April 15. We invite you to contact Linda Haftner (see contact information at the bottom of this page) for further information and for help with your application.”

So don’t let the fact that you don’t live in Vancouver, or not even in BC, keep you from applying to this cohort.

Please contact Linda Haftner if you have any questions.

Unfortunately, the Secondary English Language Arts M.Ed cohort (SLR1), which was scheduled to be offered in Richmond, has been cancelled due to the low number of acceptable applications.  We are working with the Language & Literacy Education department to aid those who have already applied.  Please see the SLR1 web site for more details on what your options are as an applicant.

This is the first cancellation of the 2010 admission season, and we hope it will be the last.  Deadlines are still coming up for other cohorts.  Please see our cohorts page for more information on these.

Thank you.
