The Certificate in Business is an eight-course program that introduces students to the fundamentals of business management and will provide the skills needed to contribute to an organization's success. Students who complete the Certificate in Business will: understand basic business principles; be effective contributors to team performance; and build competency in areas of business related to accounting, communication, entrepreneurship, human resources, Indigenous business, and personal finance.
Seven of eight of the courses in this program are transferrable to the Bachelor of Commerce degree at the University of Saskatchewan.
Students can pursue this program as a stand-alone option or in conjunction with another degree. The program can be completed full-time in as little as eight months or part-time. Students completing the program alongside another degree should consult with an advisor in their home college to understand how the courses fit within their program requirements. Upon first admission to the Certificate in Business program students must complete requirements within a five (5) year time period. Under exceptional circumstances, the School may grant an extension. Students returning to the Certificate in Business program after an absence of one (1) or more years may be placed under the curriculum requirements in effect on the date of readmission.
