A micro-credential is a Cambrian College Board of Governor’s level certification awarded at Convocation. The Health and Wellness Certificate of Completion is currently being offered to students who are taking a two-year diploma program, a three-year advanced diploma program or as a stand-alone certificate.
The Health and Wellness Micro-Certificate courses focus on holistic health, including physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual wellness. Each course has been designed to support a students' personal growth and personal well-being by focusing on the various facets of health and well-being.
Current Postsecondary Students
Students currently enrolled in a postsecondary program at Cambrian College may take this micro-credential concurrently with their diploma program.
Whenever there is a General Education course within their program, students seeking the micro-credential should elect to take one of the four Health and Wellness courses. Since each program requires three General Education courses, students must enroll in one additional course (with applicable tuition and other fees), whether as an overload or through an off-stream term. Students will apply to graduate for the micro-credential upon completion.
For further information, please get in touch with your program coordinator or Bradie Granger, Chair, Schools of Interdisciplinary Studies and Public Safety.
