St. Lawrence is pleased to have revised their former post - certificate program in psychosocial rehabilitation to a new improved fast track certificate. The post certificate program has changed from 6 x 45-hour courses to 4 x 60-hour courses making completion time possible in two (2) semesters. Students should be prepared to dedicate at least four (4) hours /week to their coursework. All four courses will be running consecutively fall, winter and spring, so you can start any of the courses at anytime. No textbooks are needed. Everything you need is available online.
This will make the program attractive to those professionals already working within the field. We have changed our weekly chat schedule to connecting three times throughout each term to connect with other students and the instructors.
