What Our Alumni Say

“The UBC Advanced Professional Certificate in Behavioural Insights provides a unique opportunity to develop a practical skillset for addressing real-world problems. Not only do you receive a firm grounding in theory, but you are supported in putting this theory into practice through an applied project. Working with supportive faculty and a project client, the program allowed me to add this applied experience to my existing academic background. I look forward to employing the skills that I learned as I transition out of academia and into a career in the behavioural sciences.”
