Program details
Overview
This certificate program provides foundational training in archival science, organized around three areas: functions within the documentary chain, document typology, and professional work tools. Coursework covers the management of both analog and digital archives, and students may complete an optional twenty-five-day supervised internship in an archival or records-management setting. It leads to a Certificat en archivistique, a 30-credit program delivered mainly through evening courses at the Montreal campus, with full-time and part-time study options. Admission cycles are offered for both the Fall and Winter terms, and enrollment capacity is limited. The certificate prepares students for entry-level roles in archives, records management, libraries, and documentation centres, and it can serve as a foundation for further study or specialization in information and archival sciences.
