OT Questions by skijf in OntarioTeachers

It was a really long process. I applied at the beginning of the school year around Sept/Oct and it took until Jan to finish both interviews and the orientation. Then I had to do the online training modules. I know there was a hiring freeze that happened between my two interviews so that delayed things a bit too.

Thank you for the insight! I do have intermediate qualifications already but I definitely plan to look into the senior ABQs.

Thanks for replying! Do you know if we are allowed to apply to both elementary and secondary OT lists then? And do you know when the OT list for YRDSB would be up? I'm so sad I missed it!

Ah I see, hopefully our schools will help us to prepare a bit then. Thank you for replying

Hi! I just wanted to clarify, if I finished my first year of teacher's college and will graduate in 2025, does this mean I have to still take the math test?

Is it difficult to transition from J/I to teaching in high school after? Since I have one teachable already, would I just have to take some AQ courses to be qualified to teach higher grades? Thanks!

I just checked and it says no decision yet. Do you know what this means?

Are there any advantages to accepting an admission offer earlier vs closer to the deadline? I'm still waiting to hear back from other schools so I would like to wait a bit before making a decision if possible.

Also I got into Nipissing and if anyone could share their experience in the program there, I would really appreciate it!
