Provincial Certificate in School Leadership

The Provincial Certificate in School Leadership requires 24 credit hours of University-based coursework and 6 credit hours of Field-led coursework.

Field-led courses are developed and offered by one or more of these educational partners: The Manitoba Teachers’ Society (MTS), Council of School Leaders (COSL), Manitoba Association of School Superintendents, (MASS), Manitoba School Boards Association (MSBA).

Field-led courses are designed to emphasize the professional knowledge base of experienced school leaders and the practical application of the knowledge and skills identified in the Five Domains of Knowledge and Skill Required by School Leaders in Manitoba.

Successful completion of all scheduled classes and demonstration of assignment criteria will meet the requirements for a 3-hour credit Field-led university course. When successfully completed, Field-led courses are accepted as external credit by Manitoba universities who offer Post Baccalaureate or Master of Education programs in Educational Administration.

Please note: In order to have the Field-led course credit transferred to your program, you must:

  • be registered in a Post Baccalaureate program in Educational Administration at the University of Manitoba, Université de Saint Boniface OR in a Master of Education program at Brandon University and
  • obtain a Letter of Permission from that university prior to enrolling in a Field-led course.
