Ontario College Graduate Certificate in Mental Health, Addiction and Substance Use

Conestoga College

Our one-year Mental Health, Addiction and Substance Use graduate certificate program will provide you with the skills and knowledge that are needed to support people living with mental health and substance use concerns. Given the broad influence that mental health and addiction can have on individuals, families, and communities, this program aims to provide you with a wide range of evidence-based skills to support people at the individual and the group/system levels. You will learn in groups and individually as you tackle applied projects designed to support the community in which you are learning. You will study crucial, foundational information and then have the chance to apply your learning as you work with various professionals on topics such as community collaboration, program development, trauma-informed care, and advocacy.
