Program details

Overview

This postgraduate certificate covers modern project delivery approaches, project lifecycles, and risk and stakeholder management, with curriculum built around standards set by the Project Management Institute. Applied learning builds working familiarity with Agile environments and prepares students to move toward a Scrum Master role, with the knowledge base needed to later pursue certifications such as Certified ScrumMaster, PMI Agile Certified Practitioner and Project Management Professional as professional experience accumulates.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: Applicants must hold an Ontario College Diploma, Advanced Diploma, Degree, or equivalent in computer science, information technology, computer information systems, computer programming, or business, or alternatively have a minimum of three years of related IT industry or professional experience. Those relying on experience rather than a credential must submit a resume outlining their work experience and career goals. The page does not itself quote a language-test score, deferring to Conestoga's institution-wide English Language Proficiency Requirement, which for graduate certificates sets IELTS Academic 6.5, TOEFL iBT 88, PTE Academic 58, or Duolingo 120. Canadian applicants with non-Canadian transcripts need a course-by-course credential evaluation. Students must also have reliable internet access and a device meeting the program's eText requirements.
