About Business & Professional Studies

This is a great time to be making your mark in business. The Canadian economy is the envy of many other G8 members, our labour market is creating high-quality jobs at a healthy rate, and employers are looking for people who have up-to-date knowledge and skills.

Whether you’re a veteran business leader or just starting out, the School of Continuing Studies has Business and Professional Studies courses and certificates that can help ensure your career success. We regularly monitor business trends to ensure our courses and certificates address real-life local, national, and international work environments. And our team of instructors further supports this commitment to relevance by enriching their teaching with their own first-hand experiences.

In addition to learning from true business pros, you will also benefit from the University of Toronto’s unmatched record for academic excellence. Indeed, a further advantage of advancing your career through SCS is the immense value the business community places on a U of T education.

Clear proof of this widespread confidence in our programming appears in the 19 associations and institutes that accredit our courses for people working towards professional designations and certifications. New this year, we are proud to offer a complete set of courses leading to certification by the Certified Management Accountants of Canada. Please remember, though, that if you plan to pursue a professional designation or certification offered by an external association or institute, it is important to consult that organization to determine exactly the SCS courses you should complete.
