Examinations

The resumption of in-person examinations will have a phased approach to ensure the health and safety of examination candidates, invigilators and TSSA team members.

For the initial phase of in-person examinations, two hub cities (Toronto and Burlington) have been established for TSSA examinations, based on geography and accessibility of venues with spaces that can accommodate social distancing.

Future phases and information on a return to examinations at the Ministry of Labour, Training and Skills Development examination centres will be published when more details are available.

To view the current in-person examinination information, please visit the TSSA 'Register for an Exam' page here.

TSSA will continue to monitor and provide updates related to COVID -19 as circumstances change.
