Foundations for Success

Course description

Students investigate current career opportunities in health care and related medical sciences and identify educational pathways leading to those careers. Students explore strategies to develop individualized plans that support their own ongoing personal, academic, and career success, including communication and professionalism in the workplace, personal health and well-being, stress and time management, learning styles and study skills, and goal setting. Students develop basic medical and anatomical terminology to support their studies in this program and beyond. Students research and describe trends and issues in Canadian health care, including Indigenous health care. Students examine personal and professional practices that support equity, diversity and inclusion.

Students registering for credit courses for the first time must declare a program at the point of registration. Declaring a program does not necessarily mean students must complete a program, individual courses may be taken for skill improvement and upgrading.
