Students in grade 11 may sign up to take one or more first year college courses, or a certificate program that supports them in transitioning into a career, or down a career pathway. There are many courses and certificate programs available through North Island College that provide smaller class sizes and have supportive instructors who are keen to engage new learners in areas of passion.
There will be time for questions, as well as NIC staff on site to engage in meaningful conversations around how this might be a great fit for you and/or your child.
