Achievement
The Education Transformation Centre has experienced significant progress in service delivery and administration over the past fiscal year. ETC provided emergency intervention services to three (3) clients within our target population and four (4) Emergency Return to Work Intensive standard interventions, and one (1) 6-week cycle of its summer enrichment program - all between July 2022 and June 2023. During that time, 80% of students assigned to ETC returned to school the current calendar year and completed their coursework and credits on time. Of the remaining 20% of students whose return to school plan included re-matriculating the next school year (Fall 2023), 100% are on track to do so and are re-registered for the semester. As a result of the ETC approach, all 18 students who participated in externships were offered full time or part-time work. 6 offers were accepted. In 2024, ETC’s enrichment program, ”Introduction to Technology. Whether it is an app, a game, a 3D element or otherwise, participants learn the process needed to bring their first tech idea to life. They also use Artificial Intelligence to help along the way and speed up the process of creation, allowing participants to work smarter and harder. At the end of this program, participants had a design in hand that they were proud to show to the world. Dream it. Design it. Create it. Welcome to the world of Tech!
