Topic: Eligibility for Second Career

warrda.w

I interested in applying for Second Career. My previous career was adult ESL teacher and I'm trying to get into Early Childhood, specifically, Montessori ECE.

I met with someone from the career centre and she told me I don't qualify because it is within the same field (teaching) and thus needs to be a totally different field.

I would have accepted her verdict but she also told me, my international lay off didn't qualify me, and that the program I want to apply to isn't funded. All of these, she recanted after looking further into her material or speaking to her colleagues.

Is there anyone who can enlighten me if she is correct or if there is someone else I can speak to?
