Notes

  1. The Teaching Experience Form, completed and signed by the appropriate supervisory officer, must be mailed or faxed to 519.850.2526 or emailed to [email protected] by the supervisory office.
  2. The above documentation must be received by the ASPIRE office prior to the start date of the AQ course.  Failure to submit required documentation may result in your removal from the course.

Prerequisites

  1. General Certificate of Qualification and Registration (CQR) indicating successful completion of Family Studies Part 2.
    (CQR copy is not required as our office will verify Part 2 completion via the online OCT Public Register.)

Teaching experience must be completed AFTER initial teacher certification and PRIOR to the first day of the course.
