Northwestern Polytechnic and Fort Vermilion School Division (FVSD) are working together to bridge education opportunities in the North. The two partners recently inked a deal that enables the first remote cohort of FVSD students to enroll in NWP’s newly launched, four-year Bachelor of Elementary Education (BEd) degree.
As part of the new collaborative partnership, NWP will facilitate a mixture of in-person and remote course delivery using Fort Vermilion educational facilities. Students will have access to a variety of supports and course practicums will be able to be completed in local FVSD elementary school classrooms.
The innovative learning partnership follows NWP’s new degree announcement in November 2024. Recognizing the need to develop qualified educators for rural and northern areas, FVSD approached NWP with a collaborative proposal that will be piloted over the next four years.
