The International Health Services program offers a multidisciplinary approach to health care and the development of the knowledge base and skills required to work in areas of the world disadvantaged by undeveloped or depleted health care resources. The program focuses on the individual's role as a health teacher, primary care worker and trainer for village health workers. Electronic delivery will be Web-based. In order for the students to benefit from the knowledge and experience of individuals in the field and to develop hands-on skills, one month of residency will be required. A portion of each of the courses will be covered during this period.
Students can enroll in the distance component of courses as their time allows.
When the distance education component of the courses is completed, the student may register for the one month of full time classes at Seneca College. These classes will be offered at regular intervals throughout the year. To qualify for this certificate, students must successfully complete all subjects, including the clinical component, within three years. A current fee schedule is available from the King Campus Registration Office. 1750 Finch Ave.
