Program Overview
Explore current social issues and understand the challenges faced by vulnerable populations so you can learn how to deliver impactful services, such as counselling, mediation and crisis intervention.
Courses in your first year focus on understanding human behaviour and issues related to individuals, families and groups.
New - After your first year, you will have the option of selecting one Area of Emphasis from the three options below:*
- Youth and Family Counselling
- Mental Health and Addictions
- Gerontology
Where possible, your 4th year field placement could be chosen to coincide with your area of emphasis and up to 20% of your core courses would be related to your area of emphasis as well.* In your second year, you will engage in theoretical and practical studies in counselling, ethical and professional issues, and working with various vulnerable populations.
In your upper years, you will work with diverse groups and learn theory and techniques in areas such as family therapy, case management, crisis intervention, and nonprofit agency administration. Build strong clinical skills that exceed the industry standard for undergraduate education. Learn basic communication competencies to more in-depth therapeutic interventions for individual, group and family counselling. You will practise interviewing, counselling, crisis intervention, mediation and conflict resolution. By recording the sessions, you can analyze your techniques to help you learn to communicate and support people more effectively.
Graduate with important skills in social services—how to listen, how to support someone, understanding boundaries, professionalism, cultural awareness, compassion, global citizenship and self-care. In your final semester, apply to get registered with the Ontario College of Social Workers and Social Service Workers as a Social Service Worker.
