The University of Manitoba’s certificate in applied counselling program is ideal for learners who are already working or volunteering in a counselling environment.

The certificate program puts heavy emphasis on developing practical counselling strategies, and is designed for those who have already dealt with aiding traumatic issues prior to enrolling. The University of Manitoba placed emphasis on integrating Indigenous perspectives and worldviews into several of the courses in this program, as Indigenous peoples are among the fastest growing demographics in both the province and Canada. The program was also designed around the Truth and Reconciliation Commission 94 Calls to Action, as the school continues to recognize diverse worldviews, traditions, and ways of knowing.

Just based on the fact they are now using VR to teach is a reason good enough to not apply. What happened to in person, real time, real life teaching? For a nursing curriculum it was to academic and quite ideational. I feel sorry for the students, they will be completely overwhelmed when they enter the workforce. Try to preform nursing skills after being taught on a VR headset. Joke.

UofM Nursing program is absolutely terrible. If you are interested in nursing, move to another province. The entire first year is just repeat of your prerequisite courses, and there’s barely nursing. A couple of the courses are useless to your career and a waste of your time and money, especially the course where they get sex workers to teach a class, force leftist ideologies onto you, literally tried teaching us there was more than two genders.
The deans are useless and have no leadership qualities whatsoever, most of the faculty are power tripping and treat the students like high school teenagers rather than adult learners. Definitely doesn’t help prepare you for the workforce. Absolute joke of College, not to mention the fact that they aren’t even located on the Bannatyne campus so there’s no interdisciplinary integration. I only have two stars because I met some good like minded people and we would drink before lectures just to be able to get through them.
