They took so much flack and were losing students to U of A and U of L that they eventually switched back, and now they offer a 4 year Bachelor of Education again, as well as a 2 year after-degree Bachelor of Education, but that's how it worked for years.

Today I learned the UofC offered a bachelor's level "Master of Teaching". Reminds me of the faculty of law changing of LL.B. to J.D., purely because American law schools had done so and new grads from Canadian law schools complained that their LL.B.s were perceived as "lesser than" on name alone.
Not unlike the absolutely hilarious title inflation in the financial/invest banking industry, where the lowest level of customer-facing nitwits are "vice presidents".
