Seaforth school offers courses Seaforth District High School is again providing an excellent oppor­ tunity to adults in Huron County to complete their high school educa­ tion and to receive specialized training in Office Administration that will equip and prepare them to re-enter the modern office environ­ ment. The program which is free to all participants, is scheduled to begin the first week of October at Seaforth District High School and is directed toward people who would like to work in today’s business field but require up-to-date com­ puter, accounting and secretarial skills. There are two phases to the program. Participants will begin by attending classes and taking four courses until the end of January. These classes will be composed entirely of adults. Participants will then enter co-operative education placements where training will continue until the middle of June. The normal daily classroom pro­ gram will consist of four classes - Accounting, Information Process­ ing, Business English and Personal Life Management. Students will be introduced to a variety of industry standard computer software such as Word Perfect, Lotus 1-2-3, and Bedford. Each course will use the computer to apply material when­ ever applicable. Concentration will also be on developing appropriate attitude, dFess and grooming, interpersonal skills, confidence building, decision making, indivi­ dual counselling and building class rapport and support systems vital to women re-entering the labour force. The co-operative education com­ ponent of the program will begin at the end of January with training to proceed in the town of the partici­ pant’s choice (wherever possible). Students will return to the class location one day per month to allow time for discussion, seminars, guest speakers and reflective learn­ ing- An exciting aspect to the pro­ gram is that there is an opportunity for all participants to complete the prerequisites for their high school diplomas. Each will have the opportunity to earn a maximum of eight high school credits (to a maximum of 12) based on maturity and experience.
