A certificate program in the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences offers a flexible option for students seeking to develop specialized knowledge and competencies. It provides a starting point for university studies or acts as an adjunct to an undergraduate degree. It is not designed to satisfy specific employment credentials. It is sufficiently specialized to ensure its academic integrity and normally features at least one required anchor course that is taken at the beginning of the program. Whereas diploma programs are designed as advanced level of study, certificate programs introduce students to a focused subject area, placing greater emphasis on foundation-level knowledge.
