What our Students Say

Karen

Photo of KarenKaren is a graduate of the Certificate in Management Program through Continuing Education.  “For me I felt increasingly pigeon-holed into an executive assistant role.  I wasn’t getting opportunities for advancement, and was getting overlooked due to a need for formal education”

When Karen decided to go back to school, it was a big step to take.  “Being out of school for over 20 years and returning as an adult learner, was a bit intimidating at first” notes Karen. “The program is flexible, very doable, and offered in a way that you don’t have to sacrifice family life.”

Instructors in Continuing Education programs are very supportive of the unique needs of adult students, and typically come from professional “real world” environments. The other students in the program provide the opportunity to learn from each other’s experiences, and build new relationships outside the classroom.  “The quality of the students that enter the program is fantastic” says Karen.

Karen has been able to expand her career opportunities and now works in an office manager position.  She feels the doors have opened wide for her “It’s priceless what it has done for me as a person” Karen reflects “The only regret that I have is not doing it a lot sooner.  Do it!”
