The “Computer Programming and Analysis” program is a three-year advanced diploma focusing on current industry skills. Students learn problem-solving using Microsoft, Oracle, Java, and open-source software. The curriculum covers object-oriented analysis, design, agile methodologies, and programming techniques. Emphasis is on practical application through hands-on assignments and a capstone group project creating a significant business application. Supplementary courses include mathematics, accounting, and communications. An optional co-op stream provides four consecutive four-month work terms for real-world experience.
About Optional Co-op:
College co-op programs offer practical work experience, but employment isn’t guaranteed. Students must actively seek opportunities, handle transportation costs, and be legally eligible to work in Canada. Admission to the co-op stream is competitive, based on an 80% average in Year 1. International students need work permits with potential delays. No co-op fee refunds after withdrawal date, and continuing without a permit is at the student’s risk. Early discussion with a co-op advisor is advised for work permit concerns.
All students entering this program must: have a laptop computer that meets minimum specified requirements own and maintain their laptop bring their laptop on the first day of classes.
Admission requires an Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) or equivalent. Alternatively, those 19 or older can apply with mature student status (refer to Mature Student definition for details).
