M.O. 2019-09-04, Div. 4.

§ 1 . — Equivalence recognition

M.O. 2019-09-04, Sd. 1.

23. The Minister may recognize a diploma held by an applicant as equivalent to a diploma required under this Regulation.

M.O. 2019-09-04, s. 23.

24. In determining a diploma equivalence, the Minister may consider the number of years of schooling necessary to obtain the diploma and the number, nature and content of the courses taken and practicums served to obtain it.

M.O. 2019-09-04, s. 24.

25. If the Minister cannot recognize a full equivalence of a diploma the Minister considers to be substantially equivalent, the Minister may,

(1)  on the basis of the documents on file establishing the applicant’s professional experience or any other relevant fact, determine that the applicant has the competencies identified as missing; or

(2)  request the applicant substantiate, within the time the Minister specifies, the competencies identified as missing in a written document that must contain any relevant supporting documents pertaining to the applicant’s professional experience or that establish how the courses taken made it possible for the knowledge and qualifications to be acquired, or in other evaluation tools the Minister recognizes.

M.O. 2019-09-04, s. 25.

26. The Minister may refuse to recognize a diploma or competency equivalence or, in the likelihood that refresher training would enable the competencies identified as missing to be acquired, partially recognize the competencies. In the latter case, the Minister must set the training conditions to be satisfied by the applicant to have a full competency equivalence recognized.

Before refusing an equivalence or recognizing a partial equivalence, the Minister must allow the applicant to make written observations within the time the Minister specifies.

The second paragraph does not apply if the Minister has made a request pursuant to paragraph 2 of section 25.

M.O. 2019-09-04, s. 26.

§ 2 . — Probationary period

M.O. 2019-09-04, Sd. 2.

27. The purpose of the probationary period is to verify the competence and professional qualifications of the person on whom it is imposed under any of Divisions 1 to 3 of Chapter 4.

The probationary period focuses primarily on

(1)  the ability to communicate orally and in writing in an efficient manner, and to develop, adapt, manage and evaluate teaching-learning situations designed to enable students to develop the competency described in the programs of studies approved by the Minister, making use of information and communications technologies;

(2)  the ability to establish a rapport with the students individually or as a group, to maintain an atmosphere and environment conducive to the development of competency and to consider individual differences of all types;

(3)  the ability to establish interpersonal relations with parents, the other members of the staff of the educational institution and the partners responsible for the implementation of the services; and

(4)  the ability to act ethically and responsibly in performing the various duties and to be committed to a personal or collective process of professional development.

M.O. 2019-09-04, s. 27.

28. The probationary period consists of 900 hours of teaching.

It may, however, consist of fewer than 900 but not fewer than 600 hours if the objective described in section 27 has been achieved.

To calculate valid hours of teaching for the purposes of the probationary period, only hours taught in the period during which the probationary permit is valid are considered, under contracts of at least 200 teaching hours over 12 consecutive months and in accordance with sections 29 and 30.

M.O. 2019-09-04, s. 28.

29. The probationary period must be served with only one employer that is

(1)  a school service centre or a school board constituted under an Act;

(2)  a private educational institution to which the Act respecting private education (chapter E-9.1) applies; or

(3)  an educational institution that has entered into an agreement with the Minister enabling teaching to be recognized for the purposes of the probationary period.

A probationary period served in a school service centre or a school board may be served in 2 or more of the service centre’s or school board’s institutions.

M.O. 2019-09-04, s. 29; M.O. 2020-05-25, s. 12.

30. The probationary period begins on the signing of a teaching contract consisting of at least 200 hours taught over 12 consecutive months.

As soon as the initial contract begins, the teacher trainee and a person assigned by the employer to supervise the probationary period must agree on the specific terms of the probationary period that are to guide supervision of the teaching and evaluation of the competence and professional qualifications to be verified by the probationary period.

Instruction provided in a situation described in the second paragraph of section 23 of the Education Act (chapter I-13.3) is not considered for the purposes of calculating the number of hours of teaching in the probationary period required by section 28. The teacher trainee may as well offer services to another employer while not bound by a contract in order to complete the required number of hours of teaching. Such a contract must, however, be entered into for fewer than 200 hours. An applicant may also enter into such contracts before beginning the required probationary period.

M.O. 2019-09-04, s. 30; M.O. 2020-05-25, s. 13.

31. The probationary period supervisor is to monitor the teacher trainee and evaluate the trainee’s competence and qualifications using the evaluation criteria provided by the Minister.

If the probationary period is served in 2 or more of a school service centre’s or school board’s institutions, the principals who are not supervisors for the probationary period are to participate in the monitoring and evaluation of the teacher trainee in the manner indicated by the probationary period supervisor.

M.O. 2019-09-04, s. 31; M.O. 2020-05-25, s. 14.

32. The probationary period supervisor is to provide the teacher trainee with a first progress report after 200 teaching hours and another similar report at the end of every employment contract.

Despite the foregoing, if the initial employment contract is for not more than 300 hours, the probationary period supervisor may decide to provide a progress report only at the end of the employment contract.

Every progress report must state the number of teaching hours it covers.

If a progress report indicates significant shortcomings, the probationary period supervisor is to make recommendations and set the appropriate measures in place to enable the teacher trainee to correct the shortcomings.

M.O. 2019-09-04, s. 32.

33. The probationary period supervisor is to furnish a final evaluation report at the end of the 900 hours in the probationary period.

The report may, however, be furnished as soon as the teacher trainee has taught for 600 hours if the probationary period supervisor is of the opinion that the teacher trainee has sufficiently mastered the competence and professional qualifications the probationary period seeks to verify.

M.O. 2019-09-04, s. 33.

34. The probationary period supervisor is to provide the final report to the employer who, after examining the report, concludes whether or not the probationary period objective has been attained. The employer then provides the report to the teacher trainee along with a certificate of achievement or a notice of failure, as applicable. The employer must send a copy of the report and, as applicable, the certificate or notice to the Minister.

A final report containing a notice of failure must specify the shortcomings observed and the reasons in support of the findings. It must also contain the appropriate recommendations to enable the teacher trainee to correct the shortcomings.

M.O. 2019-09-04, s. 34.

35. A person who fails a probationary period may serve a second probationary period if the person notifies the Minister in writing of the intention to do so within 60 days following receipt of the notice of failure. No further probationary period is possible if the person fails the second probationary period.

This subdivision applies to the second probationary period, with the necessary modifications, except that the duration of the second probationary period is 600 hours with no possible reduction of hours.

M.O. 2019-09-04, s. 35.

36. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the probationary permit of a person who does not send the notice referred to in section 35 within the required time ceases to have effect on the expiry of the 60-day period set out in that section.

The same applies on failure of the second probationary period.

The Minister must notify the person who held the probationary permit of the permit expiry date as well as every school service centre, school board or institution in which the person was a teacher trainee.

M.O. 2019-09-04, s. 36; M.O. 2020-05-25, s. 15.

§ 3 . — Language examination

M.O. 2019-09-04, Sd. 3.

37. Every applicant for a teaching diploma, probationary permit or teaching authorization must have passed the written French or English examination recognized by the Minister for the purpose.

M.O. 2019-09-04, s. 37; M.O. 2023-02, s. 8.

38. If the greater part of an applicant’s training was acquired in a language other than French or English, the applicant must also pass an examination assessing French or English comprehension and oral language proficiency.

M.O. 2019-09-04, s. 38.

39. This subdivision does not apply to an applicant to whom a teaching diploma or probationary permit is issued on the basis of a teaching licence issued in another province or a Canadian territory, or to an applicant to whom a teaching diploma or probationary permit is issued for the Cree and Kativik school boards only.

This section does not operate to exempt an applicant from passing a language examination if the teaching licence issued to the applicant in another province or a Canadian territory is subject to such a condition.

CHAPTER 7 TRANSITIONAL AND FINAL

M.O. 2019-09-04, c. 7.

57. This Regulation replaces the Regulation respecting teaching licences (chapter I-13.3, r. 2).

M.O. 2019-09-04, s. 57.

58. Sections 59 to 62 apply to holders of valid teaching licences issued before 1 October 2019.

M.O. 2019-09-04, s. 58.

59. All teaching diplomas issued under the Regulation respecting teaching licences (chapter I-13.3, r. 2) and valid on 30 September 2019 remain valid.

The teaching licences issued under the Regulation respecting teaching licences and valid on 30 September 2019 are deemed to have been issued under this Regulation and correspond to the teaching licences established under the new Regulation in the following manner:

(1)  a teaching permit issued under paragraph 5 of section 3 of the former Regulation is deemed to be a general education teaching diploma issued under section 6 of this Regulation;

(2)  a teaching authorization issued under section 10.1 of the former Regulation is deemed to be a vocational training teaching diploma issued under section 7 of this Regulation;

(3)  a teaching permit issued under paragraph 1 of section 3 of the former Regulation is deemed to be a probationary general education teaching permit issued under paragraph 1 of section 10 of this Regulation;

(4)  a teaching permit issued under paragraph 3 or 4 of section 3 of the former Regulation is deemed to be a probationary general education teaching permit issued under paragraph 2 of section 10 of this Regulation;

(5)  a teaching permit issued under paragraph 2 of section 3 of the former Regulation is deemed to be a probationary general education teaching permit issued under paragraph 3 of section 10 of this Regulation;

(5.1)  a teaching permit issued under section 61 or 62 of the former regulation is deemed to be a probationary vocational training teaching permit issued under paragraph 0.1 of section 15 of this Regulation;

(6)  a teaching permit issued under section 11.1 or 11.2 of the former Regulation is deemed to be a probationary vocational training teaching permit issued under paragraph 1 of section 15 of this Regulation;

(10)  a provisional teaching authorization issued under section 48 of the former Regulation is deemed to be a provisional general education teaching licence issued under section 42 of this Regulation;

M.O. 2019-09-04, s. 59; M.O. 2020-05-25, s. 29.

60. All licences and authorizations issued under the Regulation respecting teaching licences (chapter I-13.3, r. 2), valid on 30 September 2019 and having a later expiry date, expire on the date they were to expire under that Regulation. Despite the foregoing, a licence or authorization that is to expire before 30 June 2021 is deemed to expire on that date.

Renewal of a teaching licence or authorization issued under the former Regulation is, if applicable, subject to the relevant rules set out in this Regulation.

Despite the foregoing, if the application of a rule set out in this Regulation operates to prevent the renewal of a licence or authorization that would have otherwise been renewable under the former Regulation, the renewal rules of the former Regulation apply but only to the first renewal following the coming into force of this Regulation (2019-10-01).

The third paragraph, adapted as required, also applies to an initial application for a teaching licence that was being processed on 30 September 2019, and to the first renewal of a teaching licence issued pursuant to this paragraph.

M.O. 2019-09-04, s. 60; M.O. 2020-05-25, s. 30.

61. Subject to the special rules in the second and third paragraphs, the issuance conditions for a teaching diploma set out in this Regulation apply to holders of probationary permits referred to in the second paragraph of section 59. In particular, a holder of a teaching licence issued without conditions in another Canadian province or territory may be issued an equivalent teaching diploma in accordance with the provisions of this Regulation without being required to prove the conditions under the former Regulation have been met.

A holder of a teaching licence issued subject to conditions in another Canadian province or territory may be issued an equivalent teaching diploma after demonstrating that conditions equivalent to those imposed on the holder in the other Canadian province or territory or under the former Regulation have been met.

A person who began to serve a probationary period before 1 October 2019 remains subject, for the remainder of that period, to the provisions of the Regulation respecting teaching licences (chapter I-13.3, r. 2), except that this Regulation applies to a person who begins to serve a second probationary period after that date.

M.O. 2019-09-04, s. 61.

62. Section 51 of the Regulation respecting teaching licences (chapter I-13.3, r. 2) continues to apply to holders of a teaching permit issued pursuant to section 50 of that Regulation. The reference to Schedule II must consequently be read as a reference to Schedule I to this Regulation.
