Hi, I am completing ITI in electrician and my dream is teaching and I have to do B.Ed, but I don’t have graduation certificate. I want the certificate. Can I join the degree B.Com or BA which is the better course and I will study in Kannada medium .

In order to study B.Ed course, the basic educational qualification required is "Graduation" or Bachelor Degree in any discipline having one subject as mandatory subject that you will be studied in Bachelor of Education (B.Ed) course. Each B.Com and BA courses has their own scope.

As far as my best knowledge is concerned, BA (Bachelor of Arts) course would be the best course rather than Bachelor of Commerce (B.Com) course.

There are many colleges that offer BA course having one subject in local medium in Karnataka and after successful completion of the course you may pursue Bachelor of Education (B.Ed) course in Karnataka.

Make sure you secure minimum 50% marks in Graduation, as there is a certain percentage criteria required to be eligible for joining Bachelor of Education (B.Ed) course.

If you are interested to pursue B.Ed then you have to decide for which subject you want to become a teacher. If you want to become a commerce teacher then you can choose B.Com and if you want to teach arts then you can choose B.A. So, it depends upon you which subject you want to teach. There is no age limit to pursue B.Ed, therefore you can complete you comfortably complete your graduation and apply for B.Ed.
