Please note: 

  • Attendance is required. Please confirm you are available for all classes prior to registering.

Textbook

The course textbook is provided as a PDF file to all registrants. The file will be available in AMCTO Connect once the course opens for access. Normally, AMCTO provides the option to purchase a hard copy of the textbook with an additional fee, and the book is shipped through Canada Post's Xpresspost. However, we have suspended this service for Winter and Spring 2025 courses due to the prolonged Canada Post strike.
