Pathways to other Programs/Partners

Many universities (i.e. Ryerson) recognise the SSW Diploma Program. Upon acceptance to certain degree programs at their university, students are allowed to exempt certain courses and are offered advance standing in the degree program itself.

For more information on outbound pathways to further education visit Centennial’s Education Pathways and Partnerships Outbound Pathways site or contact your Pathways Advisor at advising@centennialcollege.ca.

The ONTransfer website also provides current information on college and university transfer opportunities in Ontario.

Specialized Academic Certificates

You can use your General Education (GNED) elective courses to fulfill the requirements for a Specialized Academic Certificate. Specialized Academic Certificate programs provide an opportunity for students registered in a Diploma or Advanced Diploma program to earn an additional Centennial College Certificate concurrently with their diploma. In order to obtain a Specialized Academic Certificate, you must successfully complete GNED500 plus the three GNED courses required by the Specialized Academic Certificate program. The GNED courses will also fulfill the elective GNED requirements of the diploma program. There are currently three Specialized Academic Certificate programs:

• Indigenous Studies: First Peoples in Canada,
• Inclusive Leadership Practices, and
• Entrepreneurism
