About the course

The Graduate Diploma in Youth Work gives you an understanding of the various approaches and practices used in the field, combining the latest principles of youth development with training in clinical interventions. You will develop the skills needed to support young people aged 10 to 30 while gaining exposure to a variety of professional settings. Under the guidance of our faculty members you will learn about a wide range of clinical approaches with young people, including an emphasis on relational, emancipatory and psycho-educational techniques. Montreal?s culturally diverse population offers work opportunities with groups in need such as First Nations and refugee youth, as well as programs in addiction and residential care. After completion of the Youth Work program, graduates may use their coursework toward building a portfolio for an application par equivalences to Quebec's professional orders, such as the Ordre des psycho?ducateurs et psycho?ducatrices, or the Ordre des travailleurs sociaux et des th?rapeutes conjugaux et familiaux du Qu?bec.
