Program details

Overview

This micro-credential allows students to gain the skills to develop age-appropriate, trauma-informed teaching materials to convey the stories and voices of the Holocaust with empathy and sensitivity.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: The Teaching the Holocaust micro-certificate has no formal admission process: there is no application to complete, and prospective participants simply register directly for the required course. Continuing Studies describes the intended audience as active in-service or pre-service teachers preparing to integrate Holocaust education into their classroom, or educators otherwise engaged in Holocaust education, and the program gives registration priority to teachers, though it remains open to other interested learners. No minimum grade, GPA, or prior credential is stated as a condition of registration. Continuing Studies' general English-proficiency policy applies only where a program requires formal proof; this non-credit micro-certificate is not listed among the programs that mandate a test score, though a functional command of English is assumed for coursework and discussion.

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.
