Hi,
I'm looking to do my instructor's rating, however, most schools in AB have a waiting list. I asked SeaLand aviation in Campbell River and they said they might be able to accommodate me and Moncton's flight college said their course starts mid September ( I however don't want to move that far). So, my question is if it matter where I do my instructor's rating from?
Thanks,
Gopher

Like most training, no one cares as long as you end up a competent pilot.
Having said that, it makes the most sense to complete your rating at a school you want to work at. Schools need instructors, and if you aren't a mouth breathing imbecile, they'll want to hire you.

I did mine at Windsor flying club (ontario) and would suggest it if you are looking for 1 on 1 training rather than a course. It's also cheaper than most other schools...

Did you try Excel in Lethbridge? Roland is pretty fantastic.

It doesn’t matter at all where you do your instructor rating. All the flight tests for instructor ratings have to meet the same standards that TC mandates. Just make sure you start applying before your instructor rating is actually complete.
