The Seniors Living Management Certificate program, developed through a collaboration with BC Seniors Living Association (BCSLA), provides knowledge and skills in the areas of management, labour relations, residential site operations, healthy aging and nutrition in the owning and operating of residences for active seniors.
As our population continues to age, so too does the demand for quality residences for this demographic. Learners have a unique opportunity to join the evolving seniors care market in BC and to be rewarded by responding to the residential needs of active and vibrant older people.
BCSLA works with independent and assisted living providers to form and strengthen vital resident-responsive communities that foster independence and freedom of choice for older people who have a proactive approach to health and wellness.
This program may serve to establish or expand your employment opportunities in the growing field of residence management for active seniors.
