Description

Design a rewarding technologist career with an Architecture certificate
 
Want to succeed in the architecture, engineering, or construction industries? The Chang School Certificate in Architecture will teach you how to use the digital architecture technology that employers are looking for.
 
Master must-have programs like AutoCAD and Revit, and grow your knowledge around building regulations and policies, sustainable building practices, and building materials for the Canadian climate. Many of our instructors are leading, licensed, and practicing architects working in the field, so they bring real-world expertise to all our architecture courses – and can help you begin building your professional network before you even graduate.
 
This six-course online architecture program is the only one of its kind available and is shorter than similar programs offered at other schools. Because it isn’t a full-time program, you can continue working and get the certification you need.
