How does an MEd compare an MEd to MA and MT Degrees?

A Master of Education (MEd) degree is designed for professionals working in education-related fields. By obtaining an MEd, you can enhance your teaching career and learn about innovative techniques and technologies that can stimulate and transform students' learning experiences. 

A Master of Arts (MA) degree is designed to provide you with opportunities for study, research and theoretical analysis.

If you are looking for teacher education and a credential that leads to certification with the Ontario College of Teachers, then you should look at either the Master of Teaching (MT) or the Master of Arts in Child Study and Education (MA).
