Requirements
Admission Requirements: Okanagan College lists no admission requirements for the Trauma-Informed Practice Micro-credential: entry is open, with no secondary-school credential, minimum grade point average, prior work experience or English-language test score such as IELTS or TOEFL specified as a condition of enrolment. The only academic standards named on the program page apply to completion rather than entry: learners must earn a minimum overall grade of 60 percent in each course to be awarded the micro-credential, and at least 50 percent of the program must be completed through Okanagan College itself, limiting how much can be transferred in from elsewhere. No portfolio, interview, immunisation record or other supporting document is required for admission.
