Program overview
The Pre-Health Sciences certificate at SAIT in Calgary is a preparation program that helps you meet the science and academic requirements for SAIT’s competitive health diplomas. You’ll strengthen your biology, chemistry, math and academic skills.
It is a stepping-stone into health programs like Paramedic, Medical Laboratory Technology and more — not a standalone job qualification, and generally not PGWP-eligible on its own.
