What are the differences of TESOL Canada with other TESL organizations?

In Canada, TESOL Canada concentrates more on the Private Language Industry such as Language Schools, Private Vocational Colleges as opposed to Public Education System such as Canadian Universities or Immigration Schools (LINC. etc.) Most TESOL employments in Canada are online.

On the International Scale, in addition to representing the private sector, TESOL Canada represents various public colleges and universities in Asia, the Middle East, and Europe.

While most TESL programs are designed for Canadian in class employment, TESOL covers both aspects of North American online education requirements and international in class teaching opportunities.

While TESL covers only ESL studies, TESOL covers teaching nearly 14 languages including English.
TESL follows a more traditional approach to education, TESOL updates with technology, MOOC and online education almost on weekly basis.

When TESL partners with multiple colleges and universities, TESOL partners with AWS Cloud, Microsoft Education platform, Online Education Platforms and more recently Ai Developers in Education. Think of TESL as the old TOEFL and think of TESOL as Duolingo.

TESL is a closed network of selected monopolized ESL institutions across Canada, and TESOL is an Open Network to all.

TESOL Canada Association is not a member of any TESL organization in Canada.

Internationally, TESOL Canada is affiliated with more than twenty TESOL organizations and schools offering accreditation and recognition to TESOL graduates supporting instructors to teach in North America, South America, Central America, Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. 

TESOL Canada's Teachers Training programs are available in English and thirteen other languages, including Arabic, Chinese, French, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, Italian, German, Russian, Turkish, Portuguese, Urdu, and Persian.

TESOL Canada provides TESOL standards for adults communication, TEC Teaching English to Children, TAE Teaching Academic English, and TBE Teaching Business English in all countries.

TESOL Canada standards go through a broader spectrum by covering 150 to 650 hours programs, from Certificates to Diplomas and Postgraduate Diplomas.

As a prerequisite, TESOL Canada does not necessarily need a bachelor's degree. An applicant with sufficient college studies and teaching experience can go through the TASE program. Once thoroughly evaluated, an applicant can join the TESOL Canada Association's membership and accreditation process.

All members are subject to Teachers English Language Proficiency Exam TELPE at the start of their application process. To receive TESOL Canada's Accreditation Certificate, they must pass TESOL Canada's Board Exam TCBE.
