The Professional Masters Preparation Certificate (PMPC) is an eight-month preparation program that guides students through the challenges that they will encounter as an international student in a North American professional graduate school. The PMPC is designed for international students who have completed undergraduate degrees and who wish to pursue graduate studies in North America in either business or education.

The PMPC is dedicated to helping students overcome foreseeable academic and cultural difficulties and acquire the understanding and skills to make the transition to graduate work smoother and ultimately more successful. The PMPC is a formal certificate program. Students who successfully complete this program will receive a Brock University certificate. They will also be considered for conditional admission to the MBA (ISP) when they apply.
