Chris and Shelly Smith held a Nesbitt family reunion on their farm Sunday, Aug. 17. Thirty-five people attended. With all the talk about the effects of the double cohort, there is one group of new high school graduates that has not received much attention - those who have not applied for admission this fall to a college or university. For members of this group, who may still want to explore options, as well as for post-secondary applicants who were unsuccessful in gaining admission to their programs of choice, Conestoga College will offer a specially focused program beginning this September at the College’s campus in Waterloo. Employment Training/Readiness is a full-time, 10-week program for 2003 high school graduates who want to consider whether college, university, an apprenticeship or employment is the best individual choice. All participants will be able to ask important questions and find appropriate answers in areas such as investigating jobs and careers, looking at educational opportunities, and exploring individual interests and abilities. Some may then proceed to enhancing specific academic skills in English, mathematics, computers and/or science. Working individually and in small group settings with expert faculty, each participant can work towards developing an attainable plan of action. The cost of the 10-week program is $520, and full details are available by contacting Alice Kerr at the Waterloo campus of Conestoga College at 519-885-0300, ext. 224. < INSURANCE PREMIUMS TOO HIGH?
