Classification of programs and credentials

4 - Career, technical or professional training program

This category includes postsecondary skills programs that usually lead to a specific career path and into the labour market but are not apprenticeship, pre-university, undergraduate or graduate programs. Educational requirements for admission to this program are usually not greater than a secondary school diploma. This includes typical college-level programs and Quebec CEGEP technical-stream programs, but they can also be offered at universities.
