RRC Polytech Credentials
These are the credentials available for international students.
Certificate
Typically 1 year
Certificates are programs designed to provide skills training and education leading to entry-level employment in a particular occupation. Certificate program learning outcomes are typically found at the basic knowledge and application level. These programs usually correspond to one year of study.
Diploma
Typically 2 years
Diplomas are programs designed to provide comprehensive and advanced skills training and education leading to entry-level employment in a particular occupation. Training and education will lead to the achievement of a higher level of learning and proficiency than a certificate. Diploma programs typically correspond to two years of study. Programs with an extended practicum or a cooperative education component will require additional time for completion.
Advanced Diploma
Typically 1 to 2 years
Advanced diplomas or post-baccalaureate diplomas are programs of study that are open to those who have graduated from a recognized post-secondary institution diploma or baccalaureate degree program. These programs are intended to provide specialized industry-related education and skills training to enhance previously earned credentials.
Degree
Typically 4 years
Degrees are programs designed to provide advanced skills and knowledge at the baccalaureate level. In addition to the applied learning focus that is the hallmark of all RRC Polytech programs, degrees add higher level critical thinking, inquiry and problem-solving skills as well as significant depth to the learning experience at a higher level than the diploma. RRC Polytech degree programs emphasize applied coursework and active learning.
