Now in its 21st year SCWI programs continue to demonstrate remarkable success in inspiring at risk students to complete their high school diploma and continue in career oriented post secondary education. Below are some memories and statistics from past years.
2018 SCWI Summer Institute Review
On August 27 & 28 over 60 experienced and brand-new practitioners gathered in Toronto for the SCWI Summer Institute.
Under the leadership of Phil Hedges, Sonja Vandermeer and Janine Griffore, the Institute highlighted the latest SCWI news including the successes of the past year and the challenges and opportunities for the coming year. Hands-on workshops and activities allowed new staff to integrate their skills with new practices, and veterans to renew, refresh and mentor others.
This annual program underscores the excellence and dedication of practitioners who will continue to ensure the dual credit program creates new and ongoing opportunities for young people and adults across the province.
Summer Institute 2018 presentations, handouts and other resources are posted on the RPT Tools and EDCS webpages. These resources will be especially helpful to those people new to the School-College-Work Initiative.

SCWI Newsletter: Spring 2018
This issue marks another year of incremental progress. Experienced practitioners have welcomed new staff, ensuring that new ideas and innovations continue to enhance the solid foundations of the Dual Credit initiative. Ongoing and improving access to rich data has facilitated successful, measurable and targeted SMART goals. As we continue to streamline the allocation of resources, more students can be assisted to achieve their goals. Enrolments and retention continue to grow as we share best practices through symposia, teleconferences, the summer institute, web sites, and this newsletter. One of the most exciting changes has been the introduction of the pilot program to support adult students (After ADC). This brings a range of opportunities for older students to re-engage in a manner which respects their unique needs, challenges and busy lives. Take time to enjoy the offerings, articles and testimonials that profile this vital and rewarding work.

What is SCWI?
The School-College-Work Initiative is a co-operative effort with a mandate to assist in creating a seamless transition for students from secondary school to college. In addition to a wide array of learning and awareness opportunities for students, teachers, parents and the broader community, projects have been developed to provide dual credit programs for secondary students through the partnership of secondary schools and colleges.
A collaboration of the Council of Ontario Directors of Education (CODE) and the Committee of College Presidents (COP), SCWI is jointly funded by the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities.
