Welcome to the Health Studies and Communication Skills Program!
The Health Studies and Communication Skills program is a joint effort of the School of Community and Health Studies and the Department of English and English as a Second Language at Centennial College. The first class graduated from the program in June 2006. The graduates of the Health Studies and Communication Skills Program typically enter the Practical Nursing, Practical Nursing Bridging Program for Internationally Educated Nurses (9341), Bridging to University Nursing or Pharmacy Technician programs.
The program has been designed to provide students an opportunity to understand and apply foundational concepts to develop the basic skills needed for success in health programs. The program will also assist students to enhance the communication skills necessary for the development of professional relationships within the workplace. Students will also learn the health terminology utilized within Canadian Health Care Settings.
The Health Studies and Communication Skills Program is an Academic Pathway for students who wish to continue Post-Secondary Education into College Health Programs in which English fluency in reading, writing, listening and speaking is a professional requirement for safe practice.
This handbook has been developed to inform students in the Health Studies and Communication Skills Program about the policies and procedures that guide the activities and decisions within the program. We encourage you to read the policies that may impact your journey through your Health Studies and Communication Skills program.
