Distant Placement Options

Winter 2027 Partnered Placements information

Click here to apply now!

ISA has opportunities available to FE4 students’ teachers, subject to availability and approval. Funding for accommodation and/or travel MAY be available; however, student teachers will need to organize and arrange these independently. The ISA only coordinates the placement for these opportunities and will connect you to our partners so you can arrange the rest. The deadline to apply for a Distant Placement is September 13, 2026. 



Options in Quebec

If you have a preference for a specific school/school board in Quebec but outside of the Greater Montreal Area, please indicate this when you complete your placement form. ISA must coordinate all placements within Quebec.
