The Saskatchewan Urban Native Teacher Education (SUNTEP) program is a four-year, fully accredited Bachelor of Education program offered by the Gabriel Dumont Institute (GDI) in partnership with the University of Saskatchewan (USask) College of Education and the Ministry of Education. In SUNTEP, you'll be able to focus on either early/middle years education or secondary (high school) education. The SUNTEP program, offered both in Prince Albert and at the main USask campus in Saskatoon, has a strong emphasis on Métis history, Michif language, and social justice, anti-racist/anti-oppressive education. The program combines superior academic education with extensive classroom experience and a thorough knowledge of current educational issues. The primary goals of the program are to ensure people of Métis ancestry are equitably represented in the teaching profession and to ensure that graduates are educated to be responsive to the individual needs of all students. There is a lot of flexibility in your Education degree. You will pick two different teaching areas and you'll have electives to enhance your program. This is an example of what your first year might look like for an early/middle years program student in Saskatoon: The Course and Program Catalogue has the complete and official listing of required classes and their descriptions for this program.
