College Calendar ENERGIZING EXCELLENCE 2015-2017 COLLEGE CALENDAR nlc.bc.ca 1-866-463-6652 WELCOME Thank you for taking the time to examine the Northern Lights College (NLC) 2015-2017 College Calendar. The Aurora Borealis, or northern lights, is known for bright, dancing colours that mark the sky above the magnetic pole in the northern hemisphere. The lights are constantly changing, and appear in many forms from patches or scattered clouds of light to streamers, arcs, rippling curtains or shooting rays that light up the sky. At Northern Lights College, we are known for our bright lights: • our students, who train for a bright future • our faculty and staff, who provide the training, education and support; and • our partners, who help develop curriculum and provide job opportunities, and who make key donations of money, expertise and equipment that benefit everyone at NLC. Much like the Aurora Borealis, Northern Lights College works within a constantly changing atmosphere of meeting the training and education needs for current and future workers in B.C., across Canada and around the world, and for students who are looking to continue their education at other post-secondary institutions. And just as viewing the northern lights is a special occasion that can only be experienced by heading north, so is obtaining the training or education offered at Northern Lights College. Enjoy our 2015-2017 College Calendar, and please call the College or refer to the appropriate web links if you require more details on any program.

  • ASE Program Specific Transfer Guide Project
    Adult Special Education (ASE) Program-Specific Transfer Guide Project Contractor: Donna Lowndes, Douglas College Articulation Committee Co-Chairs: Kimberly McIntyre, Northwest Community College Alison Roy, Selkirk College May 2018 1 Introduction: In British Columbia’s public post-secondary institutions, Adult Special Education (ASE) programs respond to the needs of a diverse group of learners. Individuals with disabilities, or with a combination of barriers to education, employment or independence, as described in Appendix A, are eligible to enroll in these programs/courses in accordance with each institution’s guidelines (Douglas College, 2009). ASE programs also respond to industry and community needs, and relate directly to local labour market trends. 15 BC post-secondary institutions offer ASE courses and programs. The topics in ASE programs and courses include, but are not limited to, skills that increase independence, literacy and numeracy, computer literacy, employment transition, employment readiness, and vocational skills training. Learning is enhanced by the use of student-centered best practices. ASE programs and courses emphasize skill development for the workplace, and promote independence, community inclusion, and lifelong learning. The purpose of the ASE Program-Specific Transfer Guide is to provide information to learners, parents, caregivers, instructors, employers, community agencies and counselors throughout British Columbia regarding the purpose of ASE articulation, learning outcomes for general program type offerings and a table of programs offered at each institution. The Guide will help its users with program awareness and identify transferability among ASE Employment Readiness Programs, many of which are not eligible for inclusion in the BC Transfer Guide because they are categorized as developmental or preparatory courses.
