Off Campus Education

What is Off-Campus Education?

Rocky View Schools (RVS) Off-Campus Education programs allows students in Grades 10-12 to complement their classroom studies with practical experience obtained in the workplace. Off-Campus offers innovative partnerships which enable the community, the world of work, and the school to all become a part of the learning environment.

Off-Campus programs enable students to acquire knowledge, skills, and attitudes related to work and other roles through their participation in out-of-class study, observation, work, or volunteering at community-based work sites.  This may involve volunteer activities or paid employment.  Courses consist of 25 hours per credit at a work site offering 3 to 10 credits per course taken.

RVS Off-Campus Education programming is offered through concurrent registration at the RVS Community Learning Centres.  If you are interested in any of these programs, please contact your school counsellor so that she can connect you with the off-campus coordinator in your area.
