Adult Learning Program Success Story - Trista Paul

November 29, 2024

"The desire to finish school and avoid being the oldest in class led me to the Adult Learning Program at Unakma’ki Training And Education Centre in my community. Inspired by family support and a wish to improve my life for my child, I sought a high school diploma for better opportunities and financial stability. Balancing responsibilities was challenging, but the program's flexibility and the encouragement from classmates and teachers helped me stay motivated. The supportive learning environment was crucial for success. Earning my GED was a pivotal decision, proving it's never too late to pursue your goals with belief and hard work. With her high school diploma now in tow, Trista is working towards furthering her education and is currently enrolled at Cape Breton University in the Bachelor of Science Nursing program."

Congratulations Trista! Best wishes for the future and great success in your endeavors.
