If you're a high school graduate, Academic & Career Connections has everything you need to pursue the future you want. The courses are broad enough to prepare you for any career option, and help you gain the knowledge and skills you'll need to plan the next steps of your education.
Choose from five streams of courses that enable you to upgrade your credits, explore your career options and get started earning credits towards other NSCC certificate or diploma programs. With each stream you'll get top quality instructors who work with you to provide a challenging and rewarding learning experience. You can enroll full-time or part-time and many campuses offer courses in a class setting during the day and at night along with options to study online.
With some campuses, you can also negotiate your pace; starting courses throughout the year with an accelerated format or extending courses over a longer period of time.
Upgrade – You know what you want to study but are missing some of the academic credits you need for admission or didn't get the marks you hoped for in high school. In Academic & Career Connections you can pick up the academic credits that are needed for many health and technology programs such as Math, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and Communication (English).
Get going – You didn't get into the NSCC program you wanted because it was full but want to get started with your learning. With Academic & Career Connections you may be able to choose courses that get you started with your learning and even earn credits towards the program you want to start in the following year.
Explore – You're still not sure what you want to do and need more time to figure out your career options. Academic & Career Connections helps you explore career choices and experience a little bit of NSCC's programs so you can learn more about what you like, what you don't like and your strengths.
Prepare – You've been out of school for a few years and are feeling a bit rusty. Academic & Career Connections provides a great place to reconnect to learning and the study skills you need to find success as a student.
