Overview

Advanced Diploma in Child and Youth Care

The Child and Youth Care program is a three-year advanced diploma that teaches students about family issues and children’s emotional and behavioral challenges

This program teaches students about special education and assistive technology. Students will gain experience within three full-time field placements to apply their skills. In total, you'll get over 1,500 hours of real-world experience.

In the Child and Youth Care program, you'll learn from experienced instructors

You’ll develop counseling skills, examine child abuse and neglect, mental health issues, familial structures, and psychotherapy techniques, develop professionalism and interpersonal skills relevant to the field, and many other child-centered issues and concerns. 

Fanshawe College will give you the skills and experience necessary as a child and youth care worker to accept the challenge with confidence.

The Child and Youth Care program prepares individuals to provide care and treatment for children and youth experiencing emotional, behavioral, social, and mental health challenges. 

This education and training combine both an academic facet with comprehensive and varied field experience.
