Certificates allow you to complete a specific group of university courses (for credit) as either part of your degree studies or separately.
Combine your love of the Spanish language with international business knowledge and methods of professional communication. This certificate is ideal if you’re interested in serving Hispanic communities and organizations in Canada and abroad.
In our small classes, you’ll have exceptional opportunities for learning and interaction with dynamic, engaged professors. The school’s setting in multicultural, multilingual Toronto allows for lots of learning opportunities outside the classroom — you can add to your studies by participating in film screenings, talks, lectures, conferences and discussions with native speakers. All of this immersive experience will help you become familiar with the cultures of Spanish-speaking people.
