NIC Orientation Beginning This Week In Campbell River

We are one week away from the new school year and North Island College is hosting a number of orientation events beginning today, where students can get ready for their new year and find out what supports and services are available to them.

“Orientation is an opportunity for students to learn about their school and to meet the people that will support them in their learning journeys at North Island College,” said Mez Jiwaji, Associate Director, Student Life.

“The Student Life team is looking forward to bringing together new and current students, faculty, staff, and community partners at events focused on building relationships that support mental health and well-being, and encourage help-seeking behaviours, which are important for student success both in and outside the classrooms.”

There will be in-person and virtual orientation events open to all new and returning students.

Live virtual sessions will run from 12:30 to 1:30 p.m on Aug. 29, 30 and 31, as well as Sept. 12.

Campbell River’s in-person orientation will be hosted on Wednesday, September 6th.

Students attending the virtual sessions can learn how to navigate NIC’s digital learning platforms, discover what supports are available to them and to meet their Student Life and North Island Students’ Union teams.

Classes for the fall begin Tuesday, September 5.

Students can find more information about the in-person event or online sessions at NIC Orientation.
