Admission

Admission to the cohort is determined by assessing academic qualifications, work experience and interest in the field. Individuals should have an undergraduate degree or equivalent, and two years professional or volunteer experience in community development. Candidates with practical experience and who do not have a degree may be considered for admission. Candidates with a degree who lack practical experience may also be considered for admission.

Participants not enrolled in the cohort program may register in individual courses when space is available. No program application form or fee is required, but online course registration and regular tuition payment is required.

To be considered for admission to the 2011-2012 cohort, applicants submit an application form and a non-refundable application fee.  The deadline has passed, but a few spots remain in the cohort. If you are interested contact the program director and apply now.
