Unique Pathways is now accepting applications…...Deadline Nov 20th

CBE collaborates with post-secondary institutions, industry partners and community organizations to offer a wide-range of unique opportunities for students. These range from practical, hands-on learning experiences in Exploratory programs to Dual Credit courses and programs which allow students to participate in post-secondary learning with the support of a supervising CBE teacher. These programs support students completing high school their own way. Students are set up for future success by easing the transition to post-secondary learning and/or the workplace.

For more information and a list of available programs, click here or see  Mrs. McLeod in the Career Centre.
