As the leading resource of teacher training programs for Canadians, KOM Consultants are considered to be the experts for placements throughout Australia, the United Kingdom, and Ireland. Since 1991, KOM Consultants has supported thousands of Canadian students, from all regions of the country, to obtain their teacher training qualifications overseas.

Teacher Training Specializations:
Teacher training applicants may choose to specialize in Primary, Middle Years, or Secondary levels of teaching. Each division requires specific entry requirements. Teachable subjects are not required for Primary division although some jurisdictions may demand a spread of subjects in the undergraduate degree.

Secondary teachers are normally required to have two teaching methodologies: a Major and a Minor e.g. Math/English. The successful candidate must demonstrate subjects within his/her undergraduate degree to support the methodology/ies. Typically a major teaching methodology requires five full related subjects in the undergraduate degree and two or three full subjects for a minor teaching methodology.

Students apply directly online through KOM Consultants for all teacher training programs.
