Rules & regulations
Anyone eighteen (18) years of age or older is eligible for admission to a program or a course at Concordia Continuing Education.
There are no academic requirements for admission, but there are course prerequisites that must be respected when completing a program of study.
Courses offered by Concordia Continuing Education are designated as “non-credit” and may be used to obtain a non-credit diploma or certificate at CCE. Non-credit courses cannot be counted towards any of the degree, diploma or certificate programs offered by the Faculties of the University. The courses offered by CCE are, however, recognized by industry and can be used to obtain a non-credit certificate or diploma from CCE.
Students are advised that all courses, other than those offered within the Language Programs require an acceptable level of competency in English, even though testing for such competency is not a formal prerequisite for most programs.
All students who meet at least one of the following conditions, will receive a 10% discount on their CCE course or workshop tuition fees:
- Have completed a CCE, Undergraduate or Graduate course at Concordia University in a prior academic term;
- Have completed a language proficiency test (IELTS) at CCE;
- Have completed a CCE Professional Development Seminar/Workshop.
This discount is based on the information maintained in the Concordia University student information system.
NOTE: This discount does not apply to a language proficiency test enrollment (IELTS) nor to application fees for admission to a CCE program of study.

- work for a company registered in Canada
- be employed in Canada
- be enrolled in a digital intelligence training program accredited by SCALE AI, offered by a nonprofit organization, a CEGEP or a university.

Concordia University places the principle of academic integrity, that is, honesty, responsibility and fairness in all aspects of academic life as one of its highest values. This understanding of academic integrity directs our conduct in all academic matters, especially to the submission of work for academic evaluation and to student‑professor and student‑staff relationships. Instructors, students and administrators are expected to be honest and responsible in their academic conduct and fair in their assessment of academic matters. For more information please consult the Academic Code of Conduct.
The Code of Rights and Responsibilities sets the standards of conduct for all members of our community – staff, faculty and students, and applies to incidents that occur on campus, during an on or off campus university-sponsored activity or event, or during an activity or event that has a substantive link to the university. The Code also promotes equity, respect and diversity and seeks to address behaviours such as discrimination, violence, and harassment.
