For purposes of meeting certificate requirements, all nine-credit general education (foundation) courses will count as six credits.

This certificate is open to students in all undergraduate Faculties except for students enrolled in the Schulich School of Business Bachelor of Business Administration program or the Bachelor of Administrative Studies (BAS) program. Students may not earn both a Certificate in Business Fundamentals (closed as of September 2013) and a Certificate in Non-Profit Management.
