Certificate in Pre-Community Services

Program Overview

The Pre-Community Services program provides students with an overview of the helping field, including roles and systemic issues, and a theoretical basis through courses in sociology and psychology. Students develop skills necessary for admission to programs in the School of Social and Community Services* at George Brown College and other post-secondary institutions.

Students improve their skills and confidence in a supportive learning environment. A strong emphasis on group learning encourages co-operation, teamwork and mutual support that will be beneficial in the helping professions.

Students are prepared to make effective and informed decisions regarding future education and career choices.

*Applicants to the Social Service Worker program are encouraged to apply well in advance of the ontariocolleges.ca application deadline for the following academic year.

Note: Students preparing to apply to the Behavioural Science Technology program are advised to take Pre-Health Sciences Pathway to Certificates and Diplomas Program (A109) rather than Pre-Community Services.
