FOCUS ON VOCATIONAL REHABILITATION COUNSELLING
This UBC program provides an evidence-informed, state-of-the-art, interactive and engaging graduate program over a three-year period. Orientations and/or seminars held at UBC or affiliated clinical sites will offer a distance option for those who are not able to attend in person, and clinical courses can be done with a qualified supervisor in your location, making this program accessible to professionals across Canada.
Highly trained vocational rehabilitation professionals are a key prerequisite to the success of Canadian rehabilitation and employment programs for persons with disabilities.
UBC’s graduate program is an essential component in addressing nation-wide labour shortages in these leadership positions.
