Program details

Overview

The Management Studies Advanced Certificate is ideal for anyone working in or preparing for a supervisory, leadership or management position. Students will learn how to make decisions, communicate effectively and be a good leader.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: The Management Studies Advanced Certificate has open admission, with no specific prerequisite grades or standardized test required. Applicants need two years of post-secondary education in any field, or the equivalent as determined through Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition, plus employment or volunteer experience in a capacity where the skills learned can be readily applied. A minimum of six TRU credits (distance or on-campus) must be completed toward the fifteen-credit certificate, which requires a GPA of 2.00 or higher to complete. The page states no language-test requirement; Thompson Rivers University's general standard for direct entry into an undergraduate certificate is IELTS Academic 6.5 with no band below 6.0, or TOEFL iBT 88 with no section below 20, published on TRU's international English-requirements page.

Application Details

Application Deadline: Domestic applicants (Canadian citizens and permanent residents) apply directly to TRU: for the September (Fall) intake the deadline is 1 May, for January (Winter) it is 1 September, and for the May (Summer) intake it is 1 January; applications for most programs open 1 October, and a deadline falling on a weekend or statutory holiday moves to the next working day. International applicants follow the same intake structure with deadlines of 1 May (September), 1 October (January) and 1 February (May); TRU still reviews later applications where space remains, though high-volume programs can close early, so admission runs on a rolling basis around these published cut-offs for the 2027 entry cycle. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
