Additional Qualification Certificate

Teachers holding a Professional A Certificate may qualify for an Additional Qualification Certificate (AQC) upon completion of additional study.  An AQC helps ensure that the province of Saskatchewan has teachers who are specialized in required subject areas for our classrooms.  An AQC certifies that the additional study was completed at a recognized post-secondary institution, is equivalent to a year (two full-time semesters) in length and is relevant to Pre-K to 12 education in Saskatchewan.   In most, but not all, situations an AQC will result in a salary class increase.  Teachers should confirm the impact that an AQC will have on their salary with their employer prior to beginning a course of study. 

A Master’s degree is not recognized as an AQC. If you are considering enrolling in a Master’s degree program for salary classification purposes, please discuss this option with your employer.
