Program details

Overview

This certificate helps students strengthen foundational academic skills in English and mathematics while exploring career and further-study pathways through social-science coursework. The curriculum is built around general-education and elective courses that may transfer toward subsequent post-secondary programmes, supported by career-planning guidance to help students clarify their educational and vocational direction. Class sizes are kept small, and students select electives aligned with their own interests while building employability skills such as communication, teamwork and study skills. The programme runs one year (two semesters) at the Main Windsor Campus with a September start. It is intended as an upgrading and exploration option for students who are not yet ready to enter a specific diploma or degree programme, rather than as direct preparation for a single occupation.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: Admission requires an Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) with the majority of courses at the College (C), University (U), University/College (M) or Open (O) level. Mature applicants without an OSSD are directed to St. Clair College's general admission-procedures page. The programme admits in September at the Main Windsor Campus. No English-proficiency scores are published on the programme's own page; St. Clair's institution-wide standard for diploma and certificate programmes applies to international applicants: IELTS Academic 6.0 overall, TOEFL iBT 60, PTE Academic 52, CAEL 60, CELPIP General 7.0 in each module, or Duolingo English Test 110.
