Before you jump into the full swing of things, it’ll be good to first ensure that you personally have everything in order. The following should be done before forming your group or securing a client, topics that’ll be discussed in the next few chapters.

Prerequisites

One of the very first things you should do is check whether or not you’ve completed all prerequisites to start the Capstone course. Since some of the required courses are not offered every semester, it is each student’s individual responsibility to manage their course planning to ensure all prerequisites are met. Students should consult their Academic Advisement Report to view their degree requirements.

As of May 2018, as per the ITM 90A/B info page, the prerequisites include the following:

4 Year Program & Co-op Students

Successful completion of ALL REQUIRED courses in the first three years of the program  and a minimum of 25 completed credits. It is strongly recommend that Professional Electives from Table I in Semester 5 & 6 are complete to meet minimum requirements.

2 Year Public Ontario College Diploma Students

Successful completion of ALL 10 courses in the 1st and 2nd semester of the curriculum.

Direct Entry Students

Successful completion of ALL Reachback courses listed on your Offer of Admission in addition to ALL Required (Professional/Professionally-Related) courses in the 5th and 6th semester.

Important Things To Know

ITM 90A/B is a two-term course that starts with 90A and continues and ends with 90B. 90A is usually offered in  the Fall) and 90B in Winter semesters. A large number of students tend to commence 90A/B in the Fall semester.

To accommodate the needs of some part-time and full-time students, the school has offered  ITM90A/B throughout the Winter and Spring/Summer terms in the past. However, it is not guaranteed that the course will continue to be offered outside of the regular academic timeframe (Sep. – Apr.) in the coming years. So, it is highly recommended that you check with the TRS ITM office and plan accordingly.

During the course intention process, you will only be required to enrol in ITM 90A and the Registrar’s Office will process the enrolment for ITM 90B for you.
