British Columbia Programs

In British Columbia, we offer both the Doctor of Education Leadership and a Master of Education Leadership with cohorts admitted Fall quarter each year

For Students in British Columbia

The EdD program is comprised of two parts: 

  • Part 1: System leadership coursework (32 quarter credits) related to system transformation and anchored in the Spirit of Leadership Competencies). Students who have successfully completed TELP will be granted 8 credits. 

  • Part 2: 30 additional credits of coursework, 10 credit research sequence, and 15 credit dissertation. 

Goals:

The Ed.D. program is specifically designed to support system leadership grounded in BC’s provincial curriculum, which is dedicated to equitably developing global competencies in each child. In service of this aspiration the program is guided by the BC School Superintendent’s Association competencies for system leadership, the Spirit of Leadership.  

The program is guided by the idea that system leaders must nurture powerful learning and must foster a future in which children feel confident and secure not only in their identity, but in their relationships with others and with the environment. In other words, system leaders have a responsibility to help enact a more just and sustainable society (Spirit of Leadership, 2022).
