Off-campus Education
The Off-campus Education Handbook will replace the Off-campus Education Guide for Administrators, Counsellors and Teachers and the Registered Apprenticeship Information Manual. Information from both previous publications have been revised and incorporated into one document, making it easier for everyone to find information on the required procedures and processes.
The Off-campus Education Handbook 2009 is targeted for optional implementation in the 2009/2010 school year to allow school jurisdictions time to transition to full implementation scheduled for September 2010.
Current documents, the Off-campus Education Guide for Administrators, Counsellors and Teachers and the Registered Apprenticeship Information Manual will be available until September 2010.
