Welcome to the Horizon School Division's Career Wiki
Recently I heard from a past student who is on the brink of thriving at the University of Toronto, another alumni contacted me in her capacity as a Community Helper for a non profit society. One of our past Registered Apprenticeship Program (RAP) students sent us a greeting as he popped into an Edmonton office to pick up an apprenticeship award.
It turns out Dr Seuss was correct when he said, "You have brains in your head, you have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. That thought is 100% related to this wiki and our role as career practitioners, we hope to help you find all the information, news, opportunity and data you need to find "The Places You'll Go" (Dr Seuss again, in this case it is the name of his book). Look around but email me if you have any questions.
