Focused Educational Approach
Vancouver Career College programs and courses use a student-focused approach to learning. Class sizes are small, allowing for more interaction between students and instructors. Programs combine classroom based educational approaches with hands-on learning opportunities. Additionally, each Vancouver Career College campus is community-based, allowing students to live, study and work as close to their homes as possible.
