Teachers' Certification

Every teacher employed in the primary/elementary/secondary schools of this province, is required by law to hold a valid Newfoundland and Labrador teaching certificate.  All studies beyond those completed for your initial certification must have PRIOR written approval from the Registrar of Teacher Certification. Direct your inquiries to the Registrar of Teacher Certification well in advance of your plans to begin an additional program of study.

Since options and requirements may change over time it is essential that you consult with the Registrar of Teacher Certification to have your plans for certification up-grading approved in advance of any course/program registration. Once you have received your program upgrade approval, that approval remains in place for the duration of your program.
