Anyone looking to finish off their high school diploma or upgrade some courses for college purposes will have the chance to do so starting in January at Assiniboine College's Parkland Campus.
Their Mature Student High School program will offer classes in English, Math, Biology, Indigenous Studies, Personal Management and Word Processing both during the day as well as at night.
Besides getting the word out to prospective students, Parkland Campus Student Success Advisor Kristy DeSender says they are also going to be reaching out to the business community, asking them to support any employees who wish to take part in the Mature Student program.
"You can give them the gift of time or flexibility in order to take one of our high school credit courses while working full-time for you. Investing in your employees completing their high school diploma is going to boost their morale, enhance their productivity, and it builds a more skilled workforce for our community."
DeSender adds it also shows a business' commitment to growth, fosters loyalty, and increases opportunities for advancement.
Campus director Carol Stewart says getting your high school diploma can open a lot of doors for people.
"Earning your high school diploma can help you with your current job or help you in a new career. And people take this program to meet their personal goals so they can grow and expand their knowledge. It is a decision to come back that demonstrates determination and courage, and we are here to help with every step. "
