Applicants

opening in September 2002. Choose a joint University of British Columbia/Tec de
Monterrey Masters degree or one of two associated post-graduate certificate
programs. All courses will be delivered online. Apply online at http://met.ubc.ca/

Background
The MET is a joint program with Tec de Monterrey (ITESM, Mexico). It is based on the highly successful and award-winning Post-Graduate Certificate in Technology-Based Distributed Learning (TBDL), designed, developed and delivered by DE&T and Tec de Monterrey from 1997-2002. Like the former TBDL, the MET Program is a professional development program aimed at education professionals working in technology-supported learning environments and/or interested in exploring issues related to education and technology.
*If you are a former TBDL Student, you may apply to have most of your courses transferred for credit toward any of the new programs.
Program Offerings
The MET Program has been designed to allow students to focus on their area of teaching/education expertise -- the adult/post-secondary sector, or the primary/secondary (K-12) sector. You may choose between the 10-course Masters degree, or one of two 5-course Certificate Programs: The Post-Graduate Certificate in Technology-Based Distributed Learning (TBDL), or the Post-Graduate Certificate in Technology-Based Learning for Schools (TBLS).
Both of the certificates can be laddered into the Master in Educational Technology. You may also choose to take individual courses for professional development.
Choice, Flexibility
Besides high-quality courses taught by expert instructors, the MET Program offers the ultimate in flexibility, through:
- A joint international degree:
- access to resources and knowledge from two institutions:
- UBC and Tec de Monterrey (Mexico) Language options: students may elect to take their courses in English, Spanish, or both
- Online course format and delivery: enabling students to participate in the program regardless of where they live, and the opportunity to interact with a diverse, global group
- Choice: between a 10-course Masters degree, one of two 5-course Certificates, or individual courses for professional development
- A one-stop online shopping experience: for student admission application, course registration, tuition payment, textbook purchase and delivery, and student support
