WHAT HAPPENS AFTER I GRADUATE?

The number one question that people have when they graduate from a Training program is “how quickly will I be able to find a good job?”

DRAKE MEDOX COLLEGE GRADUATES GET JOBS!

When you go through a Drake Medox College program, you will take part in an in-depth “Job Seeking Skills” training module, which provides students with an opportunity to practice interviewing skills through role play and mock interviews. Each student prepares a completed résumé, learns key job-finding techniques, and receives a documentation checklist which is needed to facilitate their job application process. This experience will be very valuable in helping you to prepare to secure a good job.

Drake Medox has been in the business of employing and training healthcare workers for over 40 years, and during that time we have established many very strong relationships with individuals and organizations within the healthcare services community.  As a result, we are able to connect our graduates with regular job postings as soon as they are ready to begin their job search.

Drake Medox College’s program is so highly respected by healthcare service providers, that you will be well positioned to land the job you want! You will be able to find openings in home support agencies, intermediate and extended care facilities, special care units for persons with dementia, adult day centers, and private homes.  Healthcare employers are calling us and seeking our grads, click here to see the job postings.

Healthcare and Social Services is currently the fastest growth industry group in BC, primarily because of our aging population. According to the WorkBC Labour Market they are forecasted to have the largest number of job openings through to 2028.

EMPLOYER TESTIMONIAL

“We highly regard Community Support Work related schooling/credentials when making hiring decisions. The schooling indicates to us that applicants have some systematic training in the field and are passionate about quality care; this means they are likely to be high performers and stay longer because they fully understand what the job involves. Retention is a huge consideration, those that are likely to stay longer will always be highly sought after as it takes time to build working relationships and relationships with person served.”

We really enjoy having the students here, and we look forward to working with you more in the future!”

Success Story

Drake Medox College has provided me with the learning experience that I need to start my career as a successful Activity Worker at a long-term senior facility. I have achieved my goal of changing my career from a Care Aide to an Activity Worker, as I was able to find a full-time job one month after I graduated from the Drake Medox College. I would highly recommend the Activity Assistant Diploma program to anyone who work in the health care industry.
