Ressources pour vous aider à vous préparer à l’université

Figuring out what you want to do after high school graduation is no small decision (but you already knew that).

In some ways, there are more options now than ever with colleges, universities, apprenticeships and entry-level jobs intersecting and overlapping in new ways. Add to that the fact that most job requirements are becoming more open-ended while the job market itself becomes more competitive and the “right” decision seems a lot less clear.

Discover our top 3 reasons why you might want to keep university at the top of your "next steps" list.
