Program overview
The Post-Graduate Certificate - Information Technology Project Management at Saskatchewan Polytechnic’s Saskatoon campus is a 8 month post-graduate certificate specialising graduates in managing technology projects.
The program builds project-management methodology (agile and traditional), IT delivery practice, stakeholder management and the leadership skills to run technology projects end to end โ aligned with recognised PM certification pathways.
Saskatchewan Polytechnic is the province of Saskatchewan’s public polytechnic, founded in 1959, with a graduate employment rate of about 96% — among the strongest in Canadian post-secondary education. Programs are co-designed with industry advisors and taught hands-on in labs, shops and simulation facilities at the Saskatoon campus, in one of Canada’s most affordable student cities. Graduates who stay and work in Saskatchewan can also pursue the Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program (SINP) and the province’s Graduate Retention Program, which rebates up to $20,000 of tuition through tax credits.
This program is registered under CIP code 11.1099 (Computer/information technology administration and management, other) and appears on Saskatchewan Polytechnic’s published list of PGWP-eligible international programs under the post-November-2024 field-of-study rules. Programs of two academic years support a PGWP of up to three years; shorter programs support a PGWP matching program length. Eligibility lists change — verify the current Sask Polytech PGWP list and IRCC policy before applying (final decisions rest with IRCC).

- Scrum Master / Agile Team Facilitator pathway — agile delivery roles
