The October-November PREP replaces the first practicum. Rather than completing a practicum involving an evaluated teaching experience, teacher candidates who volunteer to participate in the PREP get to experience an Ontario classroom and an opportunity to teach without receiving a formal evaluation. This non-evaluative experience provides an opportunity for Internationally educated teacher candidates to become more familiar with the Ontario school system before being placed in a school for their evaluated practicum sessions in February/March and April/May. 

The OISE International Students Association (OISE ISA) represents all the international students at OISE. It organizes and sponsors cultural activities, and looks into the specific needs of international students. ISA holds an election every year in the winter term. Its office is located in Room 8-107, 252 Bloor Street West (inside the GSA suite), the telephone number is 416-928-2423, and the email address is isa@oise.utoronto.ca.

The OISE ISA Executive is pleased to announce their International Student Initiative, which will address the needs of new international students entering OISE. This includes the following:
