Hello,

Ive been reading here on Eslcafe and elsewhere, and I've gathered that institutes are not too picky about apostilles as long as you show them your degree (maybe just a copy?). While colegios want everything to be apostilled or as there's no apostilling in Canada, maybe notarized by a notary public is enough. Maybe even sealed by the Colombian consulate in Canada?

My main question is actually very specific and I don't suppose anyone will have a concrete answer, but I haven't recieved my CELTA certificate yet, and I'm a little anxious about booking a flight until I have it in my hand. Obviously I want to go before February so I can get a job at a Colegio. All Ihave at the moment is a report card from the school I got my CELTA not the certificate from Cambridge.

Thanks for reading.

I wouldn't worry too much about it. I went for an interview at a colegio and apostilled degrees never came up. I thought that you got your certificate right after finishing the course. You finished the CELTA course and just have a report card?

Anyway, I would go over and see what you can pick up.

Yeah, that's right, my CELTA course finished Dec 5, but my school told me I would get he certificate mid-Jan-ish. My plan was to go mid-feb but I'm reading now that a lot of schools will have started by then and I don't know if I'd enjoy the institute life as much as the colegio one.

I *highly* doubt this would matter to any colegio you would be interviewing at.
