Program structure

Learn in your community through theory and practice

The Certificate in Community Capacity Building consists of six required courses, which we offer online over six months. You’ll receive support from a mentor in your community setting.

The curriculum is a careful blend of theory and practice, and the learning is experiential and engaged. You’ll spend some time in a learning centre in your community. You’ll also work on your community project with your small group, and on your own as you pursue your learning goals.

Coursework: What to expect

You can expect to spend 12 hours per week on coursework.
