Is the DELTA offered anywhere in Canada? I've failed to find any information on it via the Internet. Question

Global Village Vancouver Teacher Training & Services Inc. has one.

(the blue part is the link)

Of course, if you're on the East Coast, then going to England would be closer. And if you really want to save money, it would cheaper to go somewhere like Thailand.

Thanks, GBBB. I think you are probably right...better to go to Thailand for it. Any idea how long the course is in Thai? I've seen British schools advertise 9 or 10 weeks for the DELTA. Are they all this long? (The CELTA is only 4 weeks here in Canada, so I was expecting something of a similar duration.)

I think the Delta is usually about 10 weeks long and is nothing like the Celta in terms of workload (from what I've heard).

Does that mean the DELTA is more or less work than the CELTA? Laughing

BTW the tutors at Global Village in Vancouver are the same people who taught me at my CELTA course, and I recommend them.
