                                                University Canada West (UCW) regularly visits Canadian College with an on-campus info booth so you can get quick answers about moving from a CC diploma to a UCW degree. These drop-ins are short, casual, and useful between classes. For example, the next on-campus booth is scheduled for August 27, 11:30 a.m.–12:15 p.m., on the 2nd floor.

We recently filmed new content with our instructor Robert Bestwick and a group of Digital Marketing students. While that’s being edited, here’s a clear, easy walk-through of the program they’re talking about—what you’ll learn, how the co-op works, and what you’ll graduate with.

                                                Let’s be honest: applying straight to a Canadian university can be a long, expensive road—especially if you’re still building English or want work experience along the way. Canadian College Degree Pathways flip that script: start here, earn credits + co-op experience, then jump into a partner university with advanced standing. Translation: less time, less tuition, more momentum.

If you’re finishing (or planning) Business Management & Co-op or Hospitality Management & Co-op at Canadian College, the VCC Bachelor of Hospitality Management (BHM) is the clean, practical next step.
