Educational Transitions

In today's competitive job market, particularly in the Lower Mainland where there are numerous colleges and universities, many job seekers have a post-secondary education. Consequently, students are right to wonder "just how can I stand out?"

In EDST we believe the answer to this question lies in developing a deep understanding of why you are here, what you need to accomplish while you are at university, and getting the support you need to do so.

It is often forgotten just why having an education is so valued by employers. It is not have a credential that matters. Rather, it is the abilities employers assume you developed along the way to achieving that goal. Unfortunately, many students are schooled, not educated. They have the diploma, but not the abilities that were supposed to go with it. Consequently, their degrees do not bring them closer to the lives they desire and in some cases just leave them deep in debt.

EDST transition courses were designed to help you:

  • discover the real purpose of education and the possibilities in provides
  • stand out by focusing on what really matters and preparing yourself appropriately
  • maximize your education and make the most out of your experience at Kwantlen
  • develop the abilities necessary to succeed in your studies and beyond
  • refine the means by which you can communicate your accomplishments to potential employers upon graduation
  • connect with your peers and have fun in highly interactive learning environments.

Don't just get a degree; get an education!
