GPS – Gateway to Post-Secondary @ Vancouver School Board

​GPS is a part time course that will commence each year in January and run for 15 weeks. It is a partnership with Vancouver Community College (VCC) and the VSB. This course is designed to support successful transitions from secondary school, encourage access into the post-secondary system, and increase success for this group of learners. Students will attend the course at the downtown campus of VCC 3 days a week, and return to their high school for the remainder of the week. The course is comprised of both classroom activities and supported fieldwork. A 2 week independent employment practicum is part of the program. Employment practicums will be facilitated and supervised by the VSB transition team. ​
