The Department has provided a form called the Application to Exclude Previous Name from Teacher Registry Form. Members may be excluded on the registry who are able to demonstrate that a disclosure on the registry:
· would not align with another enactment in Manitoba or Canada
· is prevented by an order issued by a court
· could cause injury or hardship to a person
· if the former name is inconsistent with the gender identity of the member.
The name exclusion forms are now available in English and French on the Department website:
· English: https://www.edu.gov.mb.ca/k12/profcert/resource.html
· French: https://www.edu.gov.mb.ca/m12/perfprof/brevet/ressources.html
If members intend to apply for an exclusion, please do so immediately. The deadline for applications is December 23, 2024.
