Start Strong at DC: Access and Support Centre Transition Event

The Access and Support Centre (ASC) at Durham College is hosting a Transition Event for grade 12 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. 

This event is designed to help ease the transition for students from their current secondary school supports 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.

ASC Transition Event:  Thursday, June 11, 5 – 8 p.m.
