If you know someone who isn't getting paid for post secondary as a teacher in Alberta you should have them apply to TQS for reconsideration.
The link is here:

Conveniently on that same page is a link to a pdf document, the requirements in section 12.0 say that any liberal arts, science, or education program automatically qualifies, then 12.1 says that anything equivalent to those qualifies, and 12.2 says the TQS can accept anything they want.
I know a teacher who took night culinary classes at SAIT and got them counted. Any university level education should absolutely qualify, it explicitly includes all sorts of things.
Edited to add: it really seemed like you were saying only a masters of education counted for the extra 2 years, when in fact any post secondary works. As an example, anyone with a 4 year undergrad plus a 2 year master of teaching would get the total 6 years education level, even though that 2 year degree is a base level certification.
