The Rehabilitation Services Certificate Program is offered jointly by York University and Seneca College of Applied Arts and Technology to York Psychology students in their second or third year. Students in the Kinesiology & Health Science program may also apply provided the required psychology courses for the joint program can be met. Joint programs allow you to combine your university education with specialized, college-based training. They allow you to get both credentials in a shorter period of time than if you completed the programs separately.

The goal of rehabilitation is to help a person recovering from illness or injury to regain optimal functionality and to become as independent as possible despite his or her disabilities. Rehabilitation also aims to teach strategies for ongoing disabilities and addresses the medical, physical, psychological, social, spiritual, vocational and economical aspects of patients and their families.
