The agency is focused on making sure that our youths are successful at all levels of their education. We want young people receive the necessary support to graduate from high school and are supported to pursue post-secondary education.

Post-Secondary Studies:

You are on the right path by choosing post-secondary education. This is a smart decision that will set you up for success in an increasingly competitive job market and allow you to explore who you are as a person. If you are struggling to choose what to study and where, the following questions are helpful.

What do you want to be when you grow up…or are you still undecided?

Consider course or professions in which you had better grades and down the road if you discover new interests many colleges and universities provide what is called 'ladder courses' to help you get your ultimate professional goal.

What value are you expecting from your education investment

It is advised that if you are conserving a specific professional program, it is important that the program is accredited and you can use the qualification to find employment.

Are extracurricular activities important to you?

A well rounded education takes into account the need to offer extra-curricular activities like athletics, volunteering etc. Many employers today look to hire well-rounded employees.
