There aren’t many jobs where you can be outdoors 90 percent of your time and see different places. I’ve gotten to experience some absolutely beautiful places in B.C. that most people wouldn’t even consider going to because they are that remote, or just areas that aren’t on the general horizon of the public. I work with a helicopter quite a bit, and that’s awesome. You can’t beat that. Luke Friesen Natural Resources and Forest Technology Graduate

CNC was the last place I thought I would begin to discover my cultural roots. I learned to embrace who I am and incorporate that into every ounce of my being. Whether it’s parenting, studying or working, I learned the importance of Indigenizing my process. Carrie Davis Graduate of CNC’s Social Service Workers University Transfer Diploma

High school students can now earn post-secondary credits while exploring a career in tech.
Dual Credit is a program that allows students who are nominated by a school representative and parent/guardian to take up to three CNC courses in their grade 12 year (one course per semester that overlaps in their senior year).
Earn elective credits toward high school graduation as well as first-year post-secondary credit towards a degree. Tuition is funded by the BC Ministry of Education and the student fees are waived. Students must pay for their textbooks and any additional course costs.
