Work Experience 

The SD72 Career Team is committed to providing practical learning learning opportunities for our secondary school students.  Work Experience is intended to provide
practical learning opportunities for our secondary school students.  Work Experience is intended to prepare students for the transition from high school to the world of
work or future training and education.  Work Experience allows students to connect what they learn in the classroom with the skills and knowledge needed in the 
workplace and society.

Students will use Work Experience to explore careers, to earn credits towards graduation, and to apply for community bursaries and scholarships.  Work Experience
also helps young people build a strong network of community contacts and references.  

Each secondary school in Campbell River School District has dedicated Work Experience Facilitator on staff to connect directly with students who want to explore
Work Experience opportunities in the community.
