This certificate examines the social and psychological factors behind criminal behaviour, including why some people are drawn toward individuals who display deviant conduct. Using a research-informed approach, students study the underlying causes of criminal actions and work toward insights applicable across both professional and community settings, with particular relevance to those working or volunteering in youth support programs, women's shelters, law enforcement or corrections.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: This part-time Ontario College Certificate requires an Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) or equivalent, or mature-student status for applicants 19 years of age or older, with no further Grade 11/12 subject prerequisites published. Rather than a scored English-language test, the program page states only the general condition that applicants must be able to receive instruction, respond, and research in the English language; no IELTS, TOEFL, PTE, or other test score is published for this program. No interview, portfolio, work-experience, or other supplementary admission condition is listed. Applicants apply through the standard Ontario Colleges process at ontariocolleges.ca, and Conestoga makes its final selection following an assessment of the admission requirements against the applicant's record.
