According to our Collective Agreement, only faculty who have a 4-year Canadian B.A. or equivalent (or a CGA, P.Eng.,CA, or CMA designation, plus some other combinations) are eligible to achieve the maximum step on their salary schedule.
Faculty who do not have access to the top step may enroll in the In-Service Teacher Training Program, to enable them to reach that step, by completing modules.
This program is scheduled to shut down, with a final enrollment date of August 31, 2019. If you do not have access to the top step and you are interested in learning more about the ISTTP, please access the link below.

½ the paid tuition is returned by DC upon successful completion of each module and a letter confirming this is sent to HR. There is a $200 non-refundable fee to get started which DC will not cover half.
This is all done online with St. Clair College. The contact there is Christina DeMers. EMAIL: CDemers@stclaircollege.ca
