Ontario Graduate Certificate
Program Code: 07721
Campus: IGS, Online
Length: 3 semesters
Whether you are starting your journey in the pharmaceutical, medical devices, food industries or other sectors with regulatory needs, Humber’s Regulatory Affairs graduate certificate program is designed to equip you with the skills for success.
This program focuses on making regulatory affairs concepts accessible and applicable. You will uncover the regulatory system, legislation, procedures and practices relevant to developing, producing and marketing health-related and consumable products.
We explore the significance of globally harmonized regulations and future industry trends by examining international and Canadian legislation, regulations, and guidelines. Throughout your studies, you will cover various standards and regulations including the GxP (Good X Practice) guidelines and regulations applied in different industries, particularly in sectors such as pharmaceuticals, health care, biotechnology, food and cosmetics.
We will cover the steps for product submission, assembling documents or navigating product registration. And, we will delve into the intricacies of negotiation and follow-up, as well as connecting with federal and provincial formularies.
Our program emphasizes the importance of teamwork and communication skills. Our aim is to help you cultivate these abilities, ensuring effective communication and adept data management tailored specifically to the field of regulatory affairs.
Program delivery options:
Fall Intake: Courses are scheduled over two 14-week semesters and offer a blend of self-directed online modules and synchronous online classes. A field experience occurs in Semester 3 and is in-person. This offering is unavailable to international students.
Winter Intake: Courses are scheduled over two 14-week semesters, and classes are a mix of in-person at the International Graduate School campus, self-directed online modules and synchronous online classes. This offering is open to domestic and international students.
Following two academic course-based semesters, students complete a three-month (450 hours) that provides opportunities to apply and integrate theoretical knowledge and skills into real-world work settings. Field experiences are conducted in a wide range of organizations such as pharmaceutical, natural health products (NHP), medical device and biotechnology companies, as well as contract research organizations, hospitals, government agencies/departments and scientific institutions.
To progress into Semester 3, students must have successfully completed the first two semesters. During Semester 3, students complete their learning at field experience sites, and assessments are carried out by assigned supervisors at the site of the field experience. While Humber does assist students in finding their field experience by working with industry partners to identify openings, students are responsible for finding their own field experience that is aligned with learning outcomes of our program.
