Program details
Overview
The Administrative Technology Micro-certificate will equip learners with the critical skills sought after by employers to succeed in a computerized office environment. This three-course program will introduce learners to computer and technical skills required in administrative positions in today's general office and business environments. Learners will develop the skills to prepare for basic job-entry in current administrative technologies or to serve as an entry point or benchmark within larger certificate and diploma programs. This program is suitable for individuals who do not have previous education or background in computing as well as those who need to retrain or upgrade their existing computer skills. This foundational program can be completed in as little as one term to quickly up-skill or re-skill and effectively prepare for a professional career.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: The Administrative Technology micro-certificate sets no admission requirements beyond the Division of Continuing Studies' own general conditions of enrolment, such as its minimum age policy; the program page states explicitly that there are 'no admission requirements outside of the Division of Continuing Studies' requirement.' There is no formal application, minimum grade, GPA, or English-language test score published for this program. Participants register directly for one of three individual courses that make up the micro-certificate, paying a $20 program fee at registration, and are responsible for confirming they meet any prerequisite or experience level recommended for the specific course they choose, though no such prerequisites are detailed on the program page itself. Continuing Studies' general English-proficiency policy does not list this non-credit micro-certificate among the programs requiring formal proof of English proficiency.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants apply through EducationPlannerBC, which opens for 2027-entry applications on 1 October 2026: most degree programmes see September 2027 entry close 31 January 2027, January 2027 entry close 30 September 2026, and Summer 2027 entry close 31 March 2027, though Teacher Education post-degree programmes close 2 January 2027, Indigenous Education post-degree admits on an ongoing basis, and Engineering's Summer entry (high-school graduates only) closes 31 December 2026. International applicants use the same portal and face identical dates, since UVic publishes no separate international deadline. UVic treats these as fixed annual dates rather than rolling admission, though it warns any programme can close early without notice. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
