Resource Management Officer Technology Diploma

Admission Requirements: VIU's general admission requirements apply, plus a minimum "C" in English 12 or equivalent; a minimum "C" in Principles of Mathematics 11 or Foundations of Mathematics 11, or a minimum "C+" in Applications of Mathematics 11, or equivalent; and a minimum "C" in Biology 11 or equivalent. You also submit a Personal Profile and two completed Referee forms, and an interview may be required. Mature applicants without Grade 12 are considered provided they have finished the minimum course requirements before applying. Recommended: the BC Wildlife Federation CORE programme, Biology 12, Chemistry 11, Mathematics 12, and hands-on computer experience including MS Windows skills. Enrolment is limited, so meeting the minimums does not guarantee a seat. VIU notes that good health matters because the programme sets a standard of physical fitness, and that agencies employing natural resource officers may require a criminal record check. During the programme you complete Occupational Level I First Aid or an equivalent, in line with WorkSafeBC requirements.
