Start Strong at DC: Access and Support Centre Transition Events

The Access and Support Centre (ASC) at Durham College is hosting two Transition Events for recent graduates or for mature students. These events are for students who identify as having an exceptionality and are planning on attending Durham College this fall.  We also welcome students who may experience physical, mental health, or learning challenges that have not been formally identified or have an IEP.

These events are designed to help ease the transition for students into post-secondary learning, and introduce them to the numerous services that are offered at the ASC and across our campus.

For those wanting to visit the campus, they can attend the events in-person.  Alternatively, we will be providing a live virtual option using MS Teams. Guests need to register in advance for both options.
