Info Sessions

UC Pre-departure 2017

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

**CANTEACH students are able to apply and attend CANTEACH University options abroad for the 2023 academic year and onwards. Teacher Education Programs are available for CANTEACH students at the Auckland University of Technology (AUT-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 and 2022 and are preparing to arrive/attend in the Fall of 2023.

Of significant interest, the New Zealand border opened and CANTEACH students have started at AUT in New Zealand July 2022 with another has arrived successfully in February 2023 (last updated March 10th, 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 in March 2023.  University or combined sessions, see schedule below (EST/ON time).  There will be a CANTEACH powerpoint presentation by Mike Johnson via zoom on March 26th, 2023.  Program presentations by Cardiff Metropolitan University (Cardiff Met), the University of the West of Scotland (UWS) and the Auckland University of Technology (AUT) March 26th, 2023 IN PERSON at the Marriott in Toronto also.

These are intended for those students interested in finding out more information about CANTEACH and the University Programs in Teacher Education.  These sessions also serve as Pre-departure and Information Sessions for AUT in NZD for July 2023 (New Zealand), August 2023 (Scotland), August 2023 (Cardiff Met) and beyond.  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 had 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 this past Fall and look forward to doing this again in March 2023.
