Hi, I'm your neighbour to the North, well North and west actually. I live on Vancouver island. I am taking the TEFL at a local university in Canada.

I know that the CELTA course from Cambridge is supposed to be more widely accepted around the globe, however when i compared the curriculum from the Celta course to the TEFL course that i'm taking, it was almost identical. The only difference i could see was that the Celta course seemed to be more geared totally towards adults but the Tefl course was more general.

I don't know if the Cambridge course would open more doors for employment, i would assume that it's where you want to work in the world and the skills and degrees you already hold that will make a difference.

You might want to check out the "Continuing Education Courses" at the universities and see what they offer. This is where the TEFL course was listed for me.. Good Luck..
D.
