Graduate Certificate in Chronic Disease Management

Program Overview

The Chronic Disease Management graduate certificate program focuses on preparing graduates to work as members of an interprofessional team with adults and families who require chronic disease management within institutions or in the home.

Your Learning Experience
The one-year (two-semester) Chronic Disease Management Graduate Certificate Program is grounded in the principles of interprofessional education and interprofessional practice. The Program promotes comprehensive assessment and team-based care planning and delivery using a person- and family-centred approach. Students will enhance their understanding of chronic diseases and evaluate the impact of these conditions on individuals’ care needs. Through the application of evidence-informed approaches, tools, and resources, students will become proficient in assessing and responding to changes in clients’ health conditions with a focus on health promotion.

Students will learn how to plan and implement interventions to modify behaviours and lifestyles to support clients in self-managing their chronic health conditions. This program is intended for international students with a healthcare or social service/science background who seek to enhance their knowledge and skills in the area of chronic disease management. Graduates will be prepared for employment in the health or social service fields based on their undergraduate credential and area of specialization. Program delivery is primarily face-to-face with state-of-the-art experiential options.
