A Flexible Learning Environment
At the Mount, we are committed to providing our students with flexible and accessible learning options. We understand that you may be working, studying full-time, or balancing the demands of your family, your career, and your education, and we’re ready to help you succeed. We welcome both full-time and part-time students, and we offer several electives via online learning.
Part-time students generally finish their studies in two years, but if you need a little more time, you can take up to five years to earn your Master’s degree in our on-campus programs. If you enroll in one of our on-campus cohorts or our off-campus cohorts your program will take two years to complete.
Our cohorts study as a group throughout the program, taking most of their classes together. Many of these cohorts are structured to accommodate teachers and other professionals who work full-time. These part-time cohorts can be completed in two years.

Our graduate programs in Curriculum Studies can help you to become a more effective educator or administrator. Graduates from our programs are classroom, resource, and learning centre teachers, educational administrators, educators in the corporate, not-for-profit, arts, and government sectors, consultants, and curriculum development specialists.
