Adult Business Certificate of Technology Program

Provides adult learners the opportunity to earn a Grade 12 Adult Dogwood Diploma through self-paced evening classes twice a week. Enrollment is reserved for full-time students who can attend in person on Monday and Tuesday evenings. Intake is continuous throughout the school year based on availability of seats. The courses cannot be completed entirely online, however enrolled students may be able to do portions of some courses online to supplement class work. Full time adult students take five courses and could receive both the Adult Dogwood Certificate and an Adult Business Certificate of Technology.
