Congratulations to all KPU graduates! Wish you all the best in your future endeavors. The EDST Department recognizes the graduates from January-May 2020 in the Minor in Counselling program:

Announcement from the Department Chair:

The EDST department hopes you are staying healthy and safe during this pandemic.

As of September 2020, EDUC 1100 will no longer be a required course for the Counselling Minor program. What this means is that if you are planning to graduate in Fall 2020 or beyond you will NOT need to take EDUC 1100 in order to fulfill the graduation requirements for the Counselling Minor.

Take good care.
Dr. Ann-Marie McLellan

NEW EDUCATION COURSE FALL 2019!

Children's Social and Emotional Development in Educational Settings

Hey KPU students, the EDUC 3220 course titled Children's Social and Emotional Development in Educational Settings will be offered in Fall 2019!

Are you interested in working with children? With EDUC 3220 you will gain experience with children’s social and emotional development through the school year, and you will learn how to promote positive interactions between students and teachers!

IMPORTANT: Co-requisites have changed! EDUC 2220 will not be required as a co-requisite to EDUC 3220 as of Fall 2019! Students now only need 30 course credits at the 1100 level or higher to register!
