The School of Child and Youth Care at UVic offers professional education to human services practitioners working with children, youth and their families. Graduates of the program are employed in front-line, supervisory and leadership positions in ministries and agencies throughout British Columbia and across North America. Employment opportunities exist in child welfare and child protection, social and mental health services, child day care centres, hospitals, schools, youth corrections agencies, infant development programs, child and youth advocacy programs, leadership in early years programs, and a range of other community-based settings.
Students will integrate theoretical perspectives on human development, behavioural change, and reflective practice with applied practice skills in core and elective courses at the second, third and fourth-year levels. Field-based practicum placements are a requirement during the second, third and fourth years.
Delivery of Child and Youth Care courses is facilitated through a web-based classroom enhanced through a selection of multimedia components (audio, video, and/or print). Some CYC courses are open to students from a variety of disciplines. Some “real-time” web meetings may be required. For courses offered in Summer, refer to the Child and Youth Care course descriptions. For further information contact:
