The Advanced College Diploma - Software Engineering Technology - Artificial Intelligence - Fast Track at Centennial College's Progress Campus in Toronto is a advanced college diploma that gives you a practical, career-focused education in this field.

You will learn to design, build, test and maintain software — programming languages, data structures, databases, web and application development, object-oriented design and modern engineering practices — through hands-on, project-based labs that build a real portfolio. Software skills are in strong, sustained demand across every industry and are on IRCC's STEM-aligned fields. Graduates work as software developers, engineering technicians and technologists, web and application developers and QA analysts across technology and business.

Delivered at Centennial College's Progress Campus in Scarborough, Toronto — the flagship campus of Ontario's first public college. This field aligns with the priority categories in Canada's post-2024 PGWP rules, so graduates may qualify for a Post-Graduation Work Permit; confirm the program's CIP code on Centennial's official PGWP-Aligned list, as the final decision rests with IRCC.

Graduates are well placed for roles such as Software Developer, Web/Application Developer and Software Engineering Technician/Technologist, 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.
