丁香园AV

There are two tests that must be applied to determine if the Act applies to a course or program at 丁香园AV:
1.    Does the course or program have a practicum component?
       AND
2.    Is the successful completion of the practicum a requirement for registration as a member of a
       governing body designated by regulation (e.g. health professions, teachers, social workers)?
       OR (b) Is it reasonably expected that the practicum component involves working directly with
       children or vulnerable adults?
       OR (c) Is it reasonably expected that the practicum component involves unsupervised
       access, or the potential for unsupervised access to children or vulnerable adults?
 

A practicum component is a course that involves a student working in the capacity of a qualified person in a specific field of study. The purpose of this course is to give the student the opportunity to apply their studies in a practical setting. Examples may include but are not limited to:

(a) An internship.
(b) A practicum.
(c) Field practice.

For the purposes of the Act, practicum components DO NOT include the following:

(a) Research.
(b) A Co-op program

*In the case of programs in which the student engages in paid work, such as Co-op, the primary relationship changes to one of employee and employer. As such, paid placements are covered by legislation that applies to employee-employer relationships.

As of January 1, 2012, the Act applies to any practicum component that is necessary in order to obtain a credential (degree, diploma, or certificate). Relevant practicum components include those components for which it is reasonably expected that:

-    the practicum involves working directly with children or vulnerable adults, OR
-    the practicum has the potential for unsupervised access to children or vulnerable adults.

If it is not clear as to whether a specific practicum component is covered under the Act, the final determination will be made by the Registrar & Executive Director Student Enrolment.
