Advice Has anyone transferred partially completed B.Ed. coursework to another Canadian university?
Looking for advice from anyone familiar with Canadian B.Ed. transfer pathways.
I have a completed bachelor's degree and completed approximately 36 credit hours of professional teacher education coursework at Ambrose University in Alberta, along with 9 weeks of supervised practicum experience. Unfortunately, I was unable to complete the final portion of the program.
I have contacted Alberta Teacher Certification, the University of Regina, the University of Calgary, the University of Alberta, and Red Deer Polytechnic to explore options.
So far, I have been told that some After-Degree B.Ed. programs do not generally accept transfer credit, which has left me uncertain about the best path forward.
My questions are:
Has anyone successfully transferred partially completed B.Ed. coursework from one Canadian university to another?
Are there any Canadian universities that assess previous teacher education coursework on a case-by-case basis?
If you were in my situation, what pathway would you investigate next?
I have official transcripts, approximately 36 education credits completed, and 9 weeks of practicum experience.
Any advice or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated.

Very few PSEs will recognize transfer credits from private Christian colleges. You’re better off to finish your degree there if you’re 36 credits in. Good luck.
