After one year in the Communications and Media Foundations at Centennial College, students receive an offer to the three-year Advertising & Marketing Communications Management, Journalism or Broadcasting and Film programs. They also develop fundamentals for success in various communications and media fields.

This communication program is essentially an academic pathway for applicants who apply to, but who do not meet the admission requirements for Broadcasting and Film, Journalism, or Advertising and Marketing Communication Management. They must, however, have completed an Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD) or equivalent, or have mature student status (19 years or older) to be eligible.

The offering covers topics that include tools and processes for communicators, introduction to media, multimedia, essential English skills, exploring digital culture, college communications and more. As such, not only do students gain a solid media education foundation but they also gain skills that will help them to succeed when they move onto the program of their choice; examine one’s roles and responsibilities as a global citizen in their personal and professional lives; and examine beliefs, values and behaviours that form individual and community identities and the basis for respectful relationships.
