It is still not too late to be thinking about your next steps to #yourfuture
So you have waited and held off thinking about what is happening for you in grade 12 or beyond Grade 12. You have avoided your school counsellor and hoped that it will all just go away… well it doesn’t have to be hard & you don’t have to do this alone.
The Vancouver School Board has you covered working with industry partners, Post-Secondary Schools and Institutions, Colleges and Trade Schools, as well as School Counselors to help you on your next steps.
The District Career Information Advisors are also on hand to support you.
Book an appointment with a DCIA to discover what can #yourfuture
We are also online if you rather have some instant access.
The online chat is available during regular school hours (8:15am – 3:30pm)
Monday through Thursday.
We are looking forward to hearing from you.

Coming Soon – Information of UBC STEM Fellowship
STEM Fellowship is a non-profit organization that connects and empowers young innovators. The main goals of our internship program are to facilitate passion for multidisciplinary scientific inquiry and to help students interested in research develop the necessary skills to actualize this goal.
Click for LIVE STREAM – to talk more about how to create a great application and to answer questions starting Saturday, December 3 at 7:00 pm PST.
These will be available online after the webinar as well.
Our goal with these webinars is to help students who may not have the same access to opportunities in STEM be successful in their applications. This may include lower income or indigenous students. It is my hope that we can identify students who would benefit greatly from this opportunity, and work with them even one-on-one to prepare a strong application. The graduate student mentors will be selecting successful interns.
This program is perfect for any grade 11 or 12 students with an interest in scientific research. Although some of our labs are focused on the earth sciences, it is still a wonderful opportunity to get acquainted with the daily life of a graduate student in science, and can serve as a great introduction for those who may be more interested in research in biology or chemistry.
