Dual Degree - College Certificate - Personal Support Worker (0630/0620/0634) & Graduate Certificate - Human Resources Management (0272/0270/0267)

Program Description 

Personal Support Workers (PSW) are important members of the health care team who assist persons with the tasks of daily living such as home management, personal care, family responsibilities, and social and recreational activities through a holistic approach. As a PSW, students will work with nurses and other health care professionals, assisting them with patient care. The PSW is also a vital part of community health care – and often the person who really makes someone’s day when they need a smile the most. Confederation College’s Personal Support Worker one-year certificate program will give students the skills they need to get into the workforce faster. During this program, students will take courses in supportive care, professional growth, helping relationships and assisting clients across the lifespan. Additionally, the program includes in-the-field training to obtain hands-on practical experience that students need.

Confederation College’s Human Resources Management one-year graduate certificate program is designed to help college and university graduates make the jump to Human Resources. This intensive program upgrades students education with a series of courses to develop their skill set for this in-demand field. Courses cover basic and advanced topics such as human resources, labour relations law, occupational health and safety and human resources planning.
