Practicum Office

Program Overview

During your two-year Bachelor of Education program, you will gain practical experience with 19 weeks of hands-on practicum in diverse Ontario classrooms. Whether you specialize in primary/junior, junior/intermediate, or intermediate/senior divisions, we ensure placements meet both program and Ontario College of Teachers' requirements.

In your second year, apply your acquired skills in a 60-hour community leadership experience, exploring education in such settings as museums, outdoor education centers, and correctional facilities. This is an unique opportunity to not only experience new ways of teaching and learning but to also gain experience investigating particular areas of interest such as coaching, special education, curriculum design, languages, and literacy, beyond traditional classrooms and within a community setting.

For inquiries, contact the Practicum Office (A207) at ptoffice@nipissingu.ca or 705-474-3450 ext. 4555.
