Full-time or part-time studies

Full-time

Courses in the Business Administration Technician program are organized so as to complete training over a two-year period. This equates to five courses in each of the fall and winter semesters. The program structure is illustrated on the course grid.

Part-time

Courses in the Business Administration Technician program can also be taken on a part-time basis (i.e., reducing the number of courses per session), while extending the duration of the program. A pre-determined pathway enables students to progress progressively complete the program in two years for the Certificate and three years for the Diploma. A three-course load per semester is still considered full-time, according to the University calendar.
