For international students enrolled in the K-12 sector who plan to remain and continue their studies at the post-secondary level in BC and/or Canada, this session explores best approaches to supporting these students. What services can high schools, international district offices and post secondary institutions provide independently and in collaboration to help international students navigate through their options and find the best path for them. What issues are counsellors and district offices finding that need addressing? How can post-secondary institutions support the students, counsellors and district offices in assisting international students as they plan their college and university education?
