Admission requirements serve to ensure prospective students have the prerequisite education and skills needed to benefit from the training.  \nInterviews:  \nInstitutions must interview every applicant to determine their suitability for your program, including any required aptitude testing. You must collect records (e.g. official test results) to show that each student has met the admission requirements before being asked to sign the Alberta Student Enrollment Contract.  \nStandard Admissions:  \n• Must require an Alberta high school diploma, verified by transcript, or non-Alberta Canadian equivalent, verified by transcript, or a GED, identifying any specific high school courses required for admission into the proposed program.  \n• Schools must verify transcripts of international students who have received their high school diploma outside of Canada, through International Qualifications Assessment Service ( IQAS) or World Education Services (WES) to be eligible for admission to the proposed program.  \nMature Admissions:  \n• Mature students should be at least 18 years of age.  \n• Mature students must complete an academic achievement/aptitude test and must have achieved a minimum required score. Indicate in your admission requirements which test you will use and what your minimum acceptable score will be. Your Licensing Officer may ask you a few questions about the minimum acceptable score identified. Acceptable tests are:  \n- Canadian Adult Achievement Test (CAAT)  \n- Test of Adult Basic Education (TABE)  \n- Canadian Achievement Survey Test for Adults (CAST)  \n- Wonderlic Basic Skills Test (BST)  \n- Wonderlic Scholastic Level Exam (SLE)  \nEnglish Language Learners:  \nAll applicants under Standard and Mature Admission must demonstrate sufficient English Language Proficiency to succeed in your proposed program. Your institution may select any one or more of the below English language assessment exams and identify a minimum score in each skill category (reading, listening, writing, and speaking) to demonstrate the CLB level of the student. Example industry standard language assessment exams include:  \n• IELTS  \n• CELPIP – General  \n• Pearson  \n• CAEL  \n• TOEFL iBT  \n• Duolingo  \nGeneral Guidelines:  \n• If one program ladders into another, the requirements for each program should differ, and the pre-requisite program should be listed as a requirement for the more advanced program.  \n• Ensure all items listed in your Admission Requirements are measurable and not subjective in nature. Employ appropriate testing practices to ensure the reliability and validity of testing results.","cbCaidSKalR18m4b","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaidSKalR18m4b","pdf",109205,"English","# Admission Requirements\n## Interviews\n## Standard Admissions\n## Mature Admissions\n## English Language Learners\n## General Guidelines","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of admission requirements for licensed programs?\",\"answer\":\"Admission requirements ensure prospective students have the prerequisite education and skills needed to benefit from the training.\"},{\"question\":\"What must institutions do before applicants sign the Alberta Student Enrollment Contract?\",\"answer\":\"Institutions must interview every applicant, determine suitability (including any required aptitude testing), and collect records such as official test results showing the student meets the admission requirements before signing.\"},{\"question\":\"What are the key admission requirements for Mature Admissions and English Language Learners?\",\"answer\":\"Mature students should be at least 18, complete an academic achievement/aptitude test, and meet a minimum required score.
