Education Programs

Invest in your Future

Educational opportunities are expanding across the country in response to the demand for more comprehensive education programs for disability management and return to work practitioners.

There are many Certificate and Diploma programs available at various educational institutions across the country. Choose the program that best meets your needs in terms of location, full or part-time study, prerequisites and credential offered. Many programs are offered by distance delivery, online or in print, allowing you to continue working and earning while learning the skills and knowledge that are of practical value to practitioners working in the field. Some programs may include a cooperative education, practicum or internship component, particularly useful for those learners who are not presently working in the field of disability management / return to work.

The Pacific Coast University for Workplace Health Sciences (www.pcu-whs.ca) offers Canada's first Bachelor of Disability Management degree, providing graduates with the knowlege and skills necessary to assist management, labour, insurance, service providers, employers and employees with the development of successful work entry or return to work strategies for persons with disabilities. Further details regarding this degree program, courses, admissions timetable, etc., can be found on the PCU-WHS website at: www.pcu-whs.ca/programs/
