Bachelor of Education (YNTEP)

Program Overview

In 1973, the Council for Yukon Indians presented the Federal government of Canada a list of grievances and a pathway to reconciliation in the landmark document Together Today for our Children Tomorrow. A central concern of this profound document is the educational injustice of Yukon’s education system. In response, it stresses that Yukon schools must teach the history of Yukon First Nations, employ culturally responsive teaching practices, and, ultimately, must be relevant to First Nations students. 

Born of this context, the Yukon Native Teacher Education Program (YNTEP) began in 1989 with a vision for change in Yukon schools as collectively voiced by First Nations Chiefs and Elders, community members, educators, and politicians across the Yukon. YNTEP students are part of an educational tradition that is committed to building educational practices and institutions that support reconciliation and decolonization. We expect graduates of YNTEP to lead for change, providing a curriculum of consequence as a foundation for a brighter future for all Yukon students and their communities.

The YNTEP degree is a four-year, 120-credit program leading to a Bachelor of Education degree credentialed by University of Regina. Graduates qualify for both Saskatchewan and Yukon Teacher Certification and are eligible for teacher certification throughout Canada.

YNTEP is a full-time program comprised of fall and winter coursework, two spring practicums, and a one-week summer cultural camp. The program provides extensive school practicum experiences totaling 26 weeks to ensure that graduates are well prepared for teaching positions in the Yukon, including rural schools, and elsewhere.
