The OCDSB International Certificate Program is still running, despite the restrictions caused by the pandemic. There are still many opportunities to learn more about different cultures and global citizenship.
The OCDSB International Certificate Program is designed to recognize and honour students who demonstrate a commitment to being motivated, engaged, and active global citizens. Participants earn the certificate by:
- Studying an international language
- Taking internationally-focused classes
- Understanding global issues
- Participating in an internationally focused project of their choice
- And much more!
Visit the OCDSB's International Certificate Program website for detailed information, or speak to Ms. Pattison or Mr. Dales.

Some good news stories from two of our 2021 ICP grads...
Congratulations to Aria Mann, who is one of four students in the OCDSB to be awarded the Lynch-Getty student award by OCENET. This award is presented to students who have "...demonstrated leadership in their community and involvement in groups, events and activities that foster cross cultural learning and understanding in school and in the community."
Zoe Takacs has submitted an article about her ICP experience to the Manotick Messenger that is being featured in the current issue. This is also serving as her final reflection for the program. Well done, Zoe!
Congratulations to our 2020 ICP Graduates!

Congratulations to Aria Mann. Aria attended the Jeju Youth Forum in Jeju, South Korea from October 31 to November 4, 2019. Their slogan is "Empower the youth, the leaders of the future". According to ICP supervisor Ms. Jen Pattison, "Aria was an amazing ambassador for our school, our Board, and our country."
Aria was one of 4 ICP students from across the OCDSB who attended the 10th annual Jeju International Youth Forum. Our students were the only Canadians within a group of 160 students who represented 29 different cities from around the world.
Aria worked with other students exploring the topic and possible solutions for “the global responsibility of poverty reduction and peace building.”
