- Description
- The Council of the Ontario College of Teachers endorsed the creation of a Temporary Certificate to enable faculty of education students to begin teaching earlier as a partial solution to Ontario’s teaching shortage.
Students who were enrolled in an accredited Ontario teacher education program and were expected to complete their program in 2021 could apply. Teachers certified in other Canadian provinces could also apply.
The certificate would be a limited-time, emergency measure designed to address severe teacher shortages in Ontario’s public school system caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. - Publisher
