Post Secondary Planning
Post Secondary Planning Case Study: Jake Sampson
This is Jake. He is a grade 10 student athlete who is looking into his options for his future.
After completing his course selection for Grades 11 and 12 in Planning class, Jake was fairly confident that he would be going to College or University after high school. He knew he wanted to do something in sports, but wasn't sure that he would make it as a pro, so Jake consulted the Education Planner Website to collect information about potential programs that he might be interested in.
Jake decided that he would look into a Bachelor of Arts (Major in Recreation and Health Education Co-op Program) at the University of Victoria.
Before making any decisions about courses, Jake completed the Post-Secondary Background Information form.
