The certificate in business administration is the first step in your business education.

Designed to meet the needs of individuals who hold full-time employment, it’s perfect for anyone who wants to complement their work experience with preparation for future business education or professional development.

The certificate is comprised of 10 courses (30 credit hours) and may be completed in-class, online or a combination of both. Careful planning is encouraged as online course availability varies each semester. Depending on the business electives completed, students may build a foundation towards pursuing a diploma in business administration and eventually a bachelor of commerce degree.

Required courses are available in the university calendar. The program worksheet is a great tool to help you in your course planning.
