Many post secondary institutions can provide you with the skills and training you need to be able to do work in the real world. But how do you get into the real world? And what type of person is the real world looking for?
Centre for Arts and Technology believes that education is more than text books and reports - it's about developing a person to be everything that they can be. It's about giving you the tools and confidence you will need to go out into the real world and get that dream job. It's about helping you understand those little corners of you that have yet to be discovered.
Our Professional Development Program (PDP) is a required part of your education. Although many institutions offer similar solutions, they are usually an elective service and for the most part, are not taken advantage of. Centre for Arts and Technology wants to ensure that all of the educational tools are at your fingertips - and that we give you every advantage possible to be successful when you step out our doors. The number one item on an employers wish list is "employability" - ensuring that the skills you have acquired are complimented by professionalism, confidence, accountability and adaptability. Our role here is to round out your education by giving you guidance and training in these necessary areas.
You will learn how to effectively write a resume, how to handle yourself in a job interview, how to network, and how to position yourself within your chosen industry. In some cases, you will tour industry relevant businesses to understand the day to day operations, you will be invited to listen to guest speakers that can give you the inside track to success, and you will be exposed to mentors and leaders in your area that can assist you in reaching your dream. You see - it's all about you.
We care about our students and want them to be successful in every aspect of life. And we truly believe that education is not just what you learn in a classroom, it is what you gain for yourself that makes you a confident player, an authentic leader, and sets a clear vision on how to reach your goals.
Isn't that the type of education you are looking for?
