The Faculty of Education does not issue a teaching certificate.

Only Canadian citizens or Permanent Residents of Canada qualify for this certificate. Under certain conditions, the Ontario College of Teachers may grant a non-Canadian citizen an Interim Certificate of Qualification.
Candidates who obtain three or more final course grades below C will not be recommended for certification. Candidates who are unsuccessful in the internship or the practicum will not be recommended for either a diploma/degree or certification.
Program Sequencing/Progression
All courses will be offered by the Faculty of Education. Courses will be designed to be meaningful to candidates regardless of their broad-based discipline; assignments, however, will be discipline-specific. The program is offered over 14 months in two 7-week summer institutes with practicum and internship being completed during the intervening Fall/Winter school year.
