Program overview
The Graduate Certificate - Advertising - Media Management at Centennial College's Story Arts Centre campus in Toronto is a graduate certificate that gives you a practical, career-focused education in this field.
This graduate certificate specialises in the media side of advertising — media planning and buying, programmatic and digital platforms, analytics and campaign management — building on your existing qualification. Graduates work as media planners and buyers, programmatic and ad-ops coordinators and media analysts across Toronto's agency market.
Delivered at Centennial College's Story Arts Centre campus in Toronto. Note that this field is not among the priority categories in Canada's post-2024 PGWP rules, so the program may not support a Post-Graduation Work Permit — if working in Canada after graduation matters to you, confirm the current position on Centennial's official PGWP-Aligned list and with IRCC before applying.
Graduates are well placed for roles such as Media Planner/Buyer, Programmatic Coordinator and Advertising Account Coordinator, gaining hands-on skills and real Canadian experience in Toronto's large job market.
Beyond technical learning, you will build the communication, teamwork and problem-solving skills that transfer across careers and support long-term success in Canada and beyond.
Studying at Ontario's first public college — one of Canada's most multicultural campuses, with automatic entrance scholarships of up to $5,000 for eligible new international students — you get supportive services and a welcoming community.
