Info Sessions

I really enjoyed coming to Canada in October 2022 for the first time in 3 years and again in March 2023!!!!  Great to meet many students (and parents) in person throughout my trips.

**CANTEACH students are able to apply and attend CANTEACH University options abroad for the 2024 academic year and onwards. Teacher Education Programs are available for CANTEACH students at the Auckland University of Technology (AUT-NZ), the University of Canterbury (UC-NZ), the University of the West of Scotland (UWS-Scotland) and Cardiff Metropolitan University (Cardiff Met-Wales). Students have started and been able to complete their programs at Cardiff Metropolitan University and the University of the West of Scotland Fall 2020, 2021, 2022 and have arrived to start their programs Fall 2023.  July 2022 have completed their program at AUT and the Feb 2023 and July 2023 groups are currently on placement in Auckland/NZ.  October 15th will mark the Feb 2024 Pre-departure meetings for AUT Feb 2024 and UC Feb 2024 groups (last updated Sept 26th, 2023).**

Mike Johnson will be doing CANTEACH Presentations on campus and attending Graduate Fairs/CANTEACH Tables with University Representatives from abroad for many Ontario Universities from October 16th – 27th, 2023.  University or combined sessions, see schedule below (EST/ON time).  There will be a CANTEACH powerpoint presentation by Mike Johnson via zoom on October 15th, 2023 in Toronto in person.  Program presentations by Cardiff Metropolitan University (Cardiff Met), the University of the West of Scotland (UWS) and the Auckland University of Technology (AUT) and the University of Canterbury (UC) on October 15th, 2023 IN PERSON at the Marriott in Toronto also.

Zoom sessions of the overall CANTEACH presentation take place monthly.  These sessions are intended for those students interested in finding out more information about CANTEACH and the University Programs in Teacher Education.

The in person sessions in Toronto serve as Pre-departure and Information Sessions for AUT and UC in New Zealand, UWS in Scotland and Cardiff Met in Scotland.  These sessions also serve as Information Sessions meetings for those students looking at the UK at Cardiff Metropolitan University (Cardiff, Wales) and The University of the West of Scotland (Ayr, Scotland) for the Fall of 2024 and beyond. CANTEACH Graduates will be on hand to meet and discuss their experience directly to interested students during these sessions.  Mike Johnson and University Representatives were not been able to come to Canada from October 2019 to October 2022, like has taken place since 2001, and we all really enjoyed being in Canada again in person October 2022 and March 2023 and look forward to doing this again in October 2023.

October 15th, 2023 in Toronto will be the Feb 2024 Pre-departure Meeting and Information Sessions for New Zealand and an Information for the UK, Scotland and Wales, for August 2024.  Please mark this date in your calendar.

I will be doing zoom sessions each month, September 27th being the next session, for all interested CANTEACH students/parents.

All Zoom sessions have the same CANTEACH Zoom meeting ID of 352 885 8645 and take place on a different date for each separate session/University/combined.  I look forward to seeing anyone who would like to attend these sessions soon.  Email Mike Johnson to confirm your Zoom session password.
