Graduate Certificates in Business provide students with the opportunity to learn transferable business skills that will enhance their employability. Most often designed for individuals who already hold a non-business credential (e.g., 2-year college diploma, associate's degree, 4-year undergraduate degree or master's degree), graduate certificates in business can be completed in as little as six, eight or 12 months depending on the program and start dates.
Often students can select form a variety of learning options including full-time or part-time study, day or evening classes, independent learning, distance education and correspondence delivery.
While the Graduate Certificate in Business is typically offered as a stand-alone qualification, it may also be part of articulated programs that enable students who complete the certificate to apply for entry into a Graduate Diploma in Business program.
