In this guide, we concentrate on the course registration itself. For a detailed description of the registration process, please see Registration Process. This guide is a supplement to the information on the form.
To begin course selection, under Registration in the menu, click Register for Courses.
Section A – Personal Information
On the page that opens, in the first section with the heading Section A – Personal Information, you see the information that our system has for you. Please review and edit this section carefully to ensure that all information is correct and current.
When you are satisfied with your edits, click on the Click to Save Changes button.
Section B – Registration
In this section, enter your choices for Leave of Absence, Volunteering and Courses.
1. Leave of Absence (not available to waitlist applicants)
Every member must pay a membership fee every year. If you decide that you are unable to sign up for courses in the coming year but want to retain your membership, you may take a Leave of Absence (LOA) by clicking that box. Then proceed directly to Section 4, which shows your fee, then to payment.
2. Volunteering
LLIR is dependent on volunteers for all its administration and activities. Please consider volunteering. There are links in this section that open pages with more information about the many types of volunteer positions available.
Check the boxes to let us know where you would like to help. The choices you made last year do not carry over to this year so let us know again where you would like to help.
Please fill out the Expertise and Experience box to help us identify suitable candidates for volunteer positions that need to be filled.
3. Course Registration
In this section you pick your course(s) using the table shown below. Before proceeding, ensure you have reviewed the courses offered for the 2026/2027 season on the website under Courses for 2026-2027. Make a note for yourself of the course titles and whether they are in the morning or afternoon.
You may take one course in the fall term, one the winter term, or one in both terms.
As a courtesy to fellow members, please do not register for a course if you plan to be away more than 4 weeks. This courtesy allows someone else to attend a course.
You must select a minimum of two courses (preferably three or four) in each term, in order of priority. After the registration period ends, we assign courses by seniority.
If you joined recently, your seniority is low and we may need to assign a course that is your second, third or fourth choice. If you do not provide choices, we will have to assign courses arbitrarily.
If you wish a winter course, select it at this point. If you are not sure and wait to add a course after registration closes, the one you want may be filled.
Note: the courses in the example below indicate 2024-25 courses.
4. Membership and Course Fees
The fees for your selection are shown in this section. Please review to ensure that the fees correspond to your choices.
5. Submit Selections and Make Payment
The last step is payment of fees. Click the Payment button at the end of the section. We accept credit or debit cards only. Payment is handled by Helcim, a Canadian payment processing company. We do not see or store your credit card information.
On completion of the transaction, your registration is recorded in our database and a statement of successful registration shows on the payment page.
Within a few minutes, you should also receive an email from LLIR confirming your registration. At busy times during registration, the confirmation of payment email may be delayed. If you do not see this email within 24 hours, check your spam or junk folder.
You can also view the courses you chose on the LLIR website (llirto.ca) at any time. Click My Profile, then click View My Courses.
If you encounter a problem or are not sure if you have registered, email registrar@llirto.ca. Allow some time for completion of registration, and do not make a second payment.
