Success Stories

Here’s What Discovery Community College Learners Have to Say…

“I very much enjoyed being part of this great program and having a great start into my career!

I felt very supported throughout the program and am forever grateful for this amazing experience, and it is something I will remember for the rest of my life.  I have learned so much in the last 8 months and I will carry these skills with me throughout my career paths.

I have made so many long lasting friendships through this program and my instructor Brennan went above and beyond to ensure we felt good and were confident in our skills as he is an amazing instructor.

Thank you so much to the funders for this experience.”

Rayne Rioux – Health Care Assistant – Campbell River

“My experience taking the Health Care Assistant (HCAP) course through Discovery Community College here in Campbell River was amazing.  I did not think I would enjoy the theory online portion being at home, however; I found it to be very informative.  Gaining that knowledge has taught me a lot of information about myself and gave me the skills I will need to make me a great care aide.

We had 53 students from across the island that I have made some lasting friendships with.  After four and a half months with Elena as our online instructor, we then went to the college campus in Campbell River for our labs portion, we had nurse Brennan Clark who also was an amazing instructor.

We finished the labs portion of course and were placed in facility to do our clinicals portions.

I want to thank the funders for helping me to achieve my qualification becoming a registered care aide.”

Teresa Butcher – Health Care Assistant – Campbell River

“My experience throughout the Health Care Assistant HCAP program was good.  I learnt a lot and it was very informational.  I met a lot of awesome people in the online theory portion and have had the pleasure of working and learning with 6 amazing people in Campbell River for labs and clinical!  We had an awesome instructor at Discovery Community College, and we couldn’t have done it without him.

Thank you so much for the opportunity to learn and help me further in my career.  Truly so grateful to the funders, instructors and fellow students.”

“I have finished my Business Finance Management diploma. I loved my instructor Monica Dahiya. She was so understanding of the challenges of being a student and a mother of two very young children at home. I felt very supported in her class. She genuinely cares about every one of her students. I will miss seeing her everyday and my classmates very much! Time to head out into the workforce!”
