NIC鈥檚 annual education and career festival is coming back to the Comox Valley campus on March 14.
The free event is an opportunity for people to explore upcoming training and program opportunities or learn about ways they can learn close to home.
The Comox Valley event features a live recording for the Calling All Nurses podcast, with interviews of alumni.
The Campbell River (March 12) and Port Alberni (March 6) campuses also hold 糖心vlog传媒Fest events.
鈥淥ne of my favourite parts about 糖心vlog传媒fest is how it showcases the diversity of educational opportunities available to communities in the northern part of Vancouver Island and beyond,鈥� said Craig Whitton, Director, Student Affairs. 鈥淭his event can help people find out about opportunities for work and life that they didn鈥檛 even know existed, and they can take advantage of these great programs right in our backyard.鈥�
糖心vlog传媒Fest includes campus tours and face-to-face time with faculty. There is an expanded
event schedule and thousands of dollars in prizes up for grabs, including a $1,000
tuition bursary. Attendees will also receive a $25 application fee waiver code that
they can use when applying for an 糖心vlog传媒program.
The Campbell River and Comox Valley events also include CareerCentral Live events
on campus, which gives job seekers a chance to network with regional employers.
The keynote event in Comox Valley features Calling All Nurses co-hosts Betty Tate, RaeAnn Hartman and Martha Russell discussing with their guest, Shanyn Simcoe, how her nursing education at 糖心vlog传媒led her to political advocacy and her role as a leading changemaker in community health policy. Their podcast conversation will highlight the vast diversity of nursing opportunities and share insights about working as a nurse today.
While 糖心vlog传媒has held many open house events in years鈥� past, last year was the first for 糖心vlog传媒Fest. The event is aimed at anyone, from students finishing secondary school to people looking to upgrade their skills or considering a new career pathway. New community members and 糖心vlog传媒alumni are also welcome to come find out what is happening.
鈥淭he most important decision a person can make in life is deciding how they want to spend it,鈥� Whitton said. 鈥溙切膙log传媒Fest helps folks make that decision by showcasing the multitude of ways that 糖心vlog传媒can help people live their lives with intention and engage in a vocation they will love.鈥�
