Aboriginal Health and Community Administration
Award-Winning Program

The UBC Certificate in Aboriginal Health and Community Administration received a Program Award of Excellence from CAUCE (Canadian Association for University Continuing Education). This award honours a program’s quality of education, innovation and advancement of the practice of continuing education in Canada.

Developed by the UBC Institute for Aboriginal Health and UBC Continuing Studies, this award-winning certificate program is designed to help those who work in Aboriginal communities to increase the community’s capacity to deliver services, coordinate programs and promote the health of their people. The program expands its focus beyond health delivery to include environmental and other community health issues.

This ten-month program consists of five residency weekends at UBC (usually once every two months) with online assignments and discussions completed in between by students from their home communities. The program’s format features peer learning through online discussions to develop team-building skills, shared learning opportunities and a supportive environment.
