Starting Fall 2026, the Jurisprudence and Ethics Examination (JEE) will be delivered as an e-learning course and examination. The last sitting of the exam in its previous format took place in March 2026.
The JEE is one of two written exams that psychology candidates are required to pass to obtain a Certificate of Registration Authorizing Autonomous Practice. It covers the legislation, regulations, standards, guidelines, and code of ethics applicable to the practice of psychology in Ontario. That hasn’t changed.
What’s changing is the structure: the JEE is now a learning journey – seven learning modules that must be completed before attempting an examination.
What to expect
The new JEE will be administered by 91ÊÓƵ and delivered online through LMS365, a Microsoft-hosted learning management system. As candidates work through each module, they’ll engage with the material through readings, knowledge checks, and reflection questions – all designed to support their learning toward entry to practice.
Once all seven modules are complete, candidates can move to the final step: a 60-question multiple-choice examination, graded on a pass/fail basis. This portion is a tool to reinforce and validate the candidate’s learning of the subject material. A score of 55 out of 60 is required to pass. If a candidate doesn’t pass on their first attempt, they can repeat the examination.
How it works
Eligible candidates will receive a personal link to the JEE. Once activated, they’ll have 60 days to complete the modules and the examination. Candidates who don’t complete the JEE within the 60-day window will need to restart the modules from the beginning.
Unlike the previous exam, which was offered twice a year, the new JEE will be available on demand throughout the year.
The JEE will be available in English or French.
An exact launch date hasn’t been confirmed, but we anticipate a Fall 2026 launch. We’ll share more details as the launch approaches.
