Students who are qualified to teach in the Intermediate and/or Senior divisions may be granted an equivalency for Part I of corresponding three-session courses, for the purposes of entry into Part II (once one year of successful teaching experience has been completed). The equivalency does not work the other way around (i.e., students who have completed Part I of a three-session course are not considered to have the equivalent teachable in the Intermediate or Senior division).

The Intermediate or Senior teachable must be entered on the teacher’s Ontario College of Teachers Certificate of Qualification.
