Out-of-Province Certificate Holders

Out-of-Province Certificate Holders

TSSA is streamlining the process for out-of-province certified professionals to work in Ontario. Candidates with a recognized equivalent certificate from another jurisdiction may start working in Ontario after registering with TSSA. Equivalent certificates are listed below. Please review it before you register with TSSA.

The previous Local Knowledge Exam is no longer required for applicants who hold a recognized equivalent certificate from another jurisdiction. 

To register or apply for Ontario certification, please contact certandexams@tssa.org
