BIS CAREER DAY!
On Thursday, February 16th, from 7.45 – 09.45 am, we will host our annual BIS Career Day for secondary school. We will welcome 25 guest speakers from different career groups and a special welcome to our keynote speaker Kevin Girard to launch the day and inspire our students in Grades 6-12 with his talk, “The importance of skills development for the job hopping Gen Z”.

 

MINI CANADIAN UNIVERSITIES FAIR
On Thursday, March 2nd, we will host a mini group of Canadian Universities during lunch from 12:30 – 13:30 pm. Grade 10-12 students are invited to join the opportunity to meet and talk directly with university representatives.

USA UNIVERSITY FAIR by AEO TOUR
On Friday, March 3rd, we will host the USA University Fair by AEO Tour at MPR after school from 2.45 – 4.00 pm. High school students (G9-12) and parents are invited to come and join us on this special opportunity. There is time to talk with the university representative and ask them questions about their programs and entry requirements, which is very helpful if you have to choose your DP subjects or when you are orientating where to go for your studies.
The AEO group will be giving an AEO Tour Airfare Scholarship to study in the USA to one student from each country they are visiting this Spring! This will not expire and can be redeemed if the winning student wants to study at one of the universities or colleges on their tour this Spring. Below you will find the names of the universities, and on the map, you can see their location.
