    Vancouver Community College - Me and the wonderful representative!

    Recently we had a representative of VCC come to Centennial Secondary. I was able to ask them…read morequestions about the cooking program the college offers. The representative was very polite, had no problem answering my questions about the community and classes along with the tuition and gave me lots of helpful insight like how long the course takes and what higher level courses they offer once you finish the first and want to progress up. The reason I picked VCC was because of their culinary courses and the representative sold me on my choice with VCC. He was able to exceed my expectations and even offered a personal tour of the entire kitchen from him.

    I'm a new student here just trying to get familiar with the place. I wanted to get ahead on my…read morebooks and materials and had been told to come back another time as I was using a gift card to pay for my books and materials. I was told by two employees that neither had been trained to do gift card transactions with the new system. Coming from North Burnaby, this a bit time wasting. When I was able to purchase my materials, I realized I was missing two items from the kit I purchased; everything was originally stuffed into a canvas bag in disarray so you could barely navigate through it to double check everything. Granted, the kit that I bought included 20+ items so I shouldn't be too upset. It's just the fact that I had to trek all the way to the downtown campus to pick up books and materials weighing well over 10lbs and trekking home again just to realize I'm still missing items. But overall I'm not too upset just a little annoyed. The customer service I got from other employees was sincere and friendly. First impressions mean a lot, but it isn't everything.

    Sitting in the "peanut gallery" as the prof used to call those of us who sat in the back of the…read moretheatre, I would smugly smile at my good fortune to be in a faculty that had classes downtown instead of the prison-like institution up the mountain. Plus, it gave me even more reason to hang out downtown. [end flashback] Taking classes in the Writing and Publishing program this past year gave me a reason to go back and experience it through adult eyes, and while the views and amenities are still there, I gotta say, I wasn't so impressed. At one point I dropped a course because it fell into the realm of irrelevance. I know I can go back and finish the certificate program anytime in the next year, heck I even have cash credit towards another course... but I likely won't use them. It's not that there isn't valuable information to be learned here, it's that it's not tax deductible. Not tax deductible? Isn't post secondary education considered deductible? Well, not according to the letter I received this week saying they had wrongly issued me a T2202E... That's the second time in my SFU career that their admin department has screwed up costing me money, time and suffering in the tax department. Once it even resulted in me being audited... as a student! I want to scream at the top of my lungs, "Get it together! You're an institution!" But I refrain, I have to save my energy for another looming accountant bill which is where this path leads. Hindsight is 20/20, and the grass is always greener at UBC.

    I've taken quite a few courses and workshops here in the Writing and Publishing program, and they…read morehave all been great. Well, except for one that was kind of lame... In any case, when you sign up for a course here, you not only get a lot of great information from instructors who are professionals in their fields, you also get a course package that includes all the books and materials required, note paper, even pens and pencils. One intensive two-week workshop I took even included a dinner and fireworks cruise in the tuition fee. There are also plenty of free events put on throughout the year, such as author talks, that you can attend just by signing up. The campus is compact, but it's quite nice, and there are coffee shops in the building and just around the neighbourhood for getting to know your classmates better. SFU Harbour Centre is great for continuing ed - convenient, safe, and attractive.
