UFV and SD34: A Perfect Partnership
A little-known ABT secret is that some of our students are earning dual credit courtesy of a long-standing agreement between UFV and the Abbotsford School District (SD34). Recently, one of our own was featured in a promotional video. Take a minute to listen to Elsie Fu as she talks about how she has benefitted from taking the ABT program.
Career Program Options
ABT isn’t the only program available to SD34 students. Eligible programs range from technology programs such as ABT and architectural drafting to trades programs such as welding and automotive service technician. If you know an Abbotsford student who is high school age, recommend that they talk to their school counsellor about how to apply to SD34’s Career Programs. It’s not everyone who can earn a high school diploma and university certification at the same time! Thanks, SD34, for being a great educational partner.

I think the dual credit option is great because so many students do not know where they want to take their education and if they have something tangible right after graduating, at least they would be one step ahead on finding employment.
We agree, Melinda! How great to be 17 or 18 and have both a Dogwood diploma and a university certificate.
