Complete your studies in just ten months through the Educational Support - Advanced Standing program. This accelerated pathway is open to those holding a college diploma or university degree. Discover the responsibilities of teachers and educational assistants while gaining skills in behavior management, curriculum adaptation, supporting diverse special needs, and aiding in lesson planning. The program emphasizes hands-on learning through classroom experiences in local schools. Culminate your studies with an immersive, semester-long practicum in an educational setting, where you'll hone your abilities as a skilled, compassionate educational assistant. Your second semester includes a 25-day field placement, followed by a seven-week intensive practicum in your final term. You have the flexibility to complete your final placement in any Ontario community. Note that a current police records check, obtainable from your local police station for a fee, is required.
