Please remember that to be a hairstylist in Ontario you require an OSSD or equivalent from your home country. The Government of Ontario, not SCAS, decides if your education back home is equivalent. Here is important information from the Government of Ontario:
"In the province of Ontario, hairstyling is considered a trade which involves an apprenticeship. In order to qualify for an apprenticeship there are some requirements of pre-apprentices :
All apprentices in hairstyling must have a grade 12 diploma (Ontario Secondary School Diploma) or other provincial equivalent, such as a General Educational Development Certificate (
GED
).
Students without a grade 12 diploma or equivalent will
not
be eligible to be registered as apprentices and will therefore be unable to work as a hairstylist in Ontario. Students can complete the grade 12 or equivalent while in the hairstyling program, however the diploma or equivalent must be obtained prior to seeking acceptance as an apprentice."
