Who decided what new additional qualifications should be created?
A. New qualifications were developed as a result of a two-year review of the teachers’ qualifications regulation. The College conducted the review, consulting widely with members, provincial education stakeholders and other groups across Ontario, to ensure that teachers continue to be well prepared to assist students in their learning. The College is working with experts to develop guidelines that providers must use in creating the courses and programs that members can take to earn the new qualifications. Guidelines establish content, learning expectations, instructional strategies and forms of assessment. The College itself does not conduct courses or programs.
