Has anyone had any experience receiving an equivalency certificate from OHEC for a diploma in Teacher Education?

 

I sent out my application paperwork in June, with the assistance of a Thai colleague, and they are still processing the documents.

 

Did you pop a 1000 baht note in the envelope along your application?

I have been thru the process, it takes around 6-7 months.

 

Its free of charge.

To the OP:  Is  this a case where you are trying to get some weird qualification recognized as being equivalent to a Bachelor's degree ?

Years ago, I worked with a British woman who had a Diploma from the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts, or some such place.  She claimed it was equivalent to a Bachelor's degree.  Easy for her to say !  After several months, she must have got a letter from whatever part of the British government adjudicates such matters, and she was able to get a Work Permit.  As best as I can remember, the adjudication process didn't cost her any money.

Thank you. I was originally told no more than 3 months. Then they 'lost' my paperwork. Looks like I will be waiting a bit more.

Nope. It's essentially just verifying that the diploma is from an accredited school, as far as I understand it. Why it takes so long is beyond my comprehension.

You are just an unlucky guy.

better disconnect your comprehension if you're intending working here...

I think member 'simon43' has some knowledge of this from his past postings, but I hesitate to tag him in.  You could send him a pm I guess?
