Program overview
The Graduate Certificate - Autism and Behavioural Science (AUT1) is a 1 year program at Fanshawe College’s London campus.
This graduate certificate credentials the autism-intervention workforce Ontario's funding model created: applied behaviour analysis principles, intervention design, data collection and supervised field placement. Provincial autism programs hire on exactly this preparation, making it among the most directly employable human-services certificates in the province.
The student infrastructure is mature — established housing near campus, transit in student fees, employers used to hiring international graduates — and Fanshawe’s PGWP-aligned list gives the post-study plan structure.
Field of study: CIP 51.1599 (Autism and behavioural science). Two eligible academic years support the full three-year permit; verify the program’s listing and IRCC’s current policy at application time.

Do you qualify?
These are the published minimums. Whether your profile fits — with your marks, gap and budget — is exactly what a free counsellor check confirms.

Application fee $100 CAD. Apply well before the February 1 equal-consideration date for September entry — capped international seats mean popular programs fill early.
