I finished the Teaching Assistant course at Discovery Community College (DCC) and I have already landed a job with a private school whose students mainly have autism. The staff at the college was friendly and helpful, and the course teacher had a lot of experience in the field. I was satisfied with course content, and pleased with the number of qualifications I ended up with, such as Red Cross First Aid, Foodsafe, etc, along with the Teaching Assistant certificate. I want to say a big thank you to the college.

Attending a Health Care Assistant program at Discovery Community College was a life-changing experience for me. The instructors were incredibly knowledgeable and supportive, and the hands-on training really prepared me for the real-world challenges of being a Health Care Assistant. I’m grateful for the opportunities this program has opened up for me.

I recently completed my Health Care Assistant diploma at Discovery Community College (DCC). I had an excellent experience throughout my studies. The program was comprehensive, instructors were knowledgeable, and the hands-on training was invaluable. I feel well-prepared for my career in health care. Highly recommend this college for health care education

I found this course a learning experience I will never forget. The instructors were extremely supportive in all aspects, and I graduated feeling confident, prepared, and ready to work. The training I received will help me be the best Health Care Assistant (HCA) I can be, and it’s owed all to the thorough and intense training from well-educated and patient instructors.

I recently had the opportunity to attend Discovery Community College and I must say, it was a truly exceptional experience. From the moment I stepped foot on campus, I was greeted with a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
The staff and faculty at Discovery Community College are incredibly knowledgeable and dedicated to helping students succeed. They go above and beyond to provide a supportive learning environment, always willing to answer questions and offer guidance. I found their expertise and passion for their respective fields to be inspiring and motivating.

I arrived in Canada March of 2019. Since I am a new immigrant, finding a job that suited my capabilities and necessities proved to be a challenge. When I came across an ad for the Health Care Assistant program under Discovery Community College, I jumped the gun right away. I’ve wanted a versatile career that will allow me to touch people’s lives and make a change.

Studying amidst a pandemic has its share of obstacles. DCC had a mixed in-person and online learning that worked perfectly with the curriculum. I liked how I can interact with my cohort and sometimes be independent with it. My instructors have been really supportive and patient with questions that we have, sharing experiences that we can tie into theory and practice.

Now that I am a certified Health Care Assistant, my family and I are at ease knowing that there is a lot of opportunities and growth waiting for me in the community. I have submitted applications and waiting back to hear from employers. I can’t wait to be back in the health industry and put my strengths to use.

I came from Lebanon in 2016 and didn’t know where my life was going to take me. I ended up doing house keeping until 2021. A friend of mine who was a graduate from Discovery Community College (DCC) told me about the Personal Support & Community Health Worker course. I never thought that I would be able to attend school and get a certificate, especially because I was concerned about my language barrier. I have never used computers, but I was able learn and was able to graduate. My English has improved , I am more confident, and also just about to get my drivers license.

The great thing is also got hired from my practicum at Delta Living Society, and I still can’t believe that this has happened!

If it wasn’t for all the support from the college I received, this would have never been possible.

If it wasn’t for the Government funding, I would never be able to take this course. Thank you, all the instructors, all the staff of DCC. I am so so grateful for this opportunity.

I was in the Personal Support & Community Mental Health Dual Certificate, and it was an effortless transition from gap year to student life! Discovery Community College honestly answer any questions or concerns you have about programs, schedules and try to be adaptable to their students. I personally loved the energy from the college. The teachers, administrators and career advisors are honest, compassionate and want what’s best for their students. It’s truly an amazing community college that brings you closer to different cultures and perspectives.

Honestly, such an amazing college. Each staff will support you every step of the way to graduation, they will treat you as a person rather than just a number like most colleges. Glad I chose DCC!
