The BCIT GIS Advanced Diploma program puts a strong emphasis on computer programming. This is a challenging program that will give you much of the technical knowledge you need to help set yourself apart in today’s job market. BCIT offers the program to students on a full-time or part-time basis.

BCIT offers an Advanced Diploma in GIS that is designed for those with a university or college degree in a related discipline.

The first is that of the British Columbia Institute of Technology located in Burnaby. I’ve examined several post graduate GIS programs in Canada and the US and I’m going to outline some of the best available.

While students often gain a cursory knowledge of GIS through their undergraduate work, it really does require a GIS focused program to set yourself apart in terms of the marketable GIS skills that employers often prefer. When it comes to gaining an edge in the GIS job market, it pays to invest in an Advanced Diploma program to supplement the education you may have gained with regard to environmental science, geography or urban planning.
