We hope you can join us for two events (separate registration required for each event):

1. Parents As Education & Career Coaches Workshop

Are you:

         a parent of a middle or high school student?

         curious to identify your child’s unique values, interests & skills in relation to their post-secondary pathway?

         looking for some practical tips to help your child explore their educational and career choices?

         Wondering about the supports available from post-secondary institution and/or tips on scholarships and financial aid

This free interactive workshop for parents, facilitated by Ed Planner BC, is designed to support you in guiding your student after high school as well as help you understand the BC post-secondary environment.

Parents are the greatest influence on their child’s education and career decision, making this a beneficial evening!

2. Careers, Trades, & Transitions Information Evening

Are you:

October 2021 Snapshot

Secondary – Teens and Substance Use

Talking to teenagers about difficult subjects like substance use

can sometimes be a challenge for parents. However, providing your child with

balanced information about substance use early on and often, can help

them make informed choices when faced with making a decision.
