At Canadore College in North Bay, Canada, HD in Behavioural Science Technology is offered as a higher diploma in Medicine & Health programme. The programme runs for 3 years, delivered on campus. Teaching is in English. Tuition for international students is CAD 16,014 per year (CAD 2,775 per year for local students).
This three-year higher diploma builds on foundational behavioural science training, preparing students to support children, youth and adults affected by Autism Spectrum Disorder, other developmental disabilities, or acquired brain injuries, and to assess and address human behaviour using applied behaviour analysis methods. In the third year, students examine research applications within applied behavioural analysis, carry out an individual research project on a chosen topic, and undertake a second placement based in a clinical setting. The additional year also addresses work with special populations and more complex, high-risk behaviours. Graduates are described as qualified for roles across community, clinical, school, residential and hospital settings.

Application Details
Start Date:Monthly
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants apply through OntarioColleges.ca: for programs starting in Fall 2027 the equal consideration date is 1 February 2027; Canadore states applicants may apply at any time, with the deposit for accepted Winter 2027 offers due 16 November 2026 and term tuition due 30 November 2026. Canadore's own how-to-apply page separately cites a generic, undated "applications open November 1 / competitive consideration date February 1 for Fall term, October 1 for Winter term" notice that names no specific cycle year, so its October 1 figure is not confirmed as the Winter 2027 deadline. International applicants apply through Canadore's international portal and are assessed on a rolling basis, with programs closing early once capacity is reached; no fixed international opening or closing date is published, and payment deadlines appear only on the individual letter of admission. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
