Students and educators at subscribing schools were given instant unlimited access to over 15,000 Canadian postsecondary programs and over 1,200 career descriptions. Nearly 1,000 schools are already using the service, and are finding it to be an invaluable resource. A simple search for a postsecondary program will give a student detailed information on the program, the institution, their admission chances, related careers, and related scholarships and bursaries. All of this information can be easily stored in the student s hotlist, which is their own private online storage space. Also available exclusively to educators is the Counsellor Resource Room, which is packed with useful features such as printable lesson plans, a peer bulletin board service, relevant articles, an online tutorial, and high school specific tracking reports.
Students find it easy to use and like receiving instant results.
