Early support programs have become best practice at many colleges and universities in Canada and the US. Other Canadian Institutions that use an early support program include UBC, Ryerson University, Mount Royal University, the University of Calgary, and many more.
The development of an early support system is a priority that was included in CNC’s Institutional Health & Wellness Strategy. CNC’s Thrive program is a custom system developed by CNC Student Services and an “Early Support Committee” comprised of staff, faculty, and educational administrators to fit the CNC context.
