This certificate is for internationally educated teachers who have completed at least one year of a teacher education program in their home country and who are qualified to teach in their country of origin. Teaching experience is preferable, but not required. Candidates must first contact the Saskatchewan Professional Teachers Regulatory Board (SPTRB) to apply for teacher certification in Saskatchewan. After assessment by the SPTRB, candidates may be eligible to apply for this Internationally Educated Teachers Certificate (IETC).

Note: To obtain a Saskatchewan teacher's certificate, candidates may be required to complete more coursework than is required by the IETC program. If that is the case, individuals will complete additional courses as they are available and offered in the current undergraduate program.
