Over the course of the Teacher Education program, you will complete two practicum placements - one in Year 1 and one in Year 2. The Practicum Office is responsible for arranging all practicum placements.

While the Practicum Office takes preferences into account, no guarantees can be made as placements are made based on availability. Preferences are taken into account as soon as the placement process begins in May. Confirmations of placements will not be sent out until the program begins in September.

Teacher candidates can be placed 90 minutes by public transportation from the postal code provided. You will also be asked for your school board preference. This is only a preference; you can be placed in any school board depending on availability.

In the Teacher Education program at the University of Ottawa, teacher candidates can be placed in the following four school boards:

• Ottawa-Carleton District School Board
• Ottawa Catholic School Board
• Catholic District School Board of Eastern Ontario
• Upper Canada District School Board.

If you live outside of Ottawa in an area that falls under the jurisdiction of the Upper Canada District School Board or the Catholic District School Board of Eastern Ontario, and you have access to a personal means of transportation, you may request a placement in a school governed by one of these school boards.

Please enter your practicum preferences here: Practicum preferences.
