Each UBC Continuing Studies certificate program has specific prerequisites. Review the web page for the certificate program that interests you for details. An Admissions Committee reviews applications to determine qualifications and suitability for the programs.

Upon completing the program requirements, participants are awarded a UBC Certificate in their program signed by the Executive Director of UBC Continuing Studies.
