SPECIAL
CURRICULUM
DEVELOPMENT
PROJECT

The Ministry of Education has awar-
ded money to Douglas College to
develop curriculum materials to assist
adults with hearing impairments in
making career decisions and prepar-
ing for work. This curriculum, once it is
developed, will be made available
provincially to anyone working with
people who are language impaired.

The following people will be involved
with this project: :

Ted Borsa - Writer
Dottie Rundles - Consultant
Gladys Loewen - Project Coordinator ’

An advisory committee will be es-
tablished consisting of representa-
tives of community agencies and edu-
cational institutions. The committee
will provide guidance and feedback as
the material is being developed.

We're excited about this project and so
are agencies who work with clients
who are hearing impaired. Anyone
requiring further information can con-
tact Gladys at local 2791.

Thank you.
Gladys Loewen

College departments. Sure brightens

WORK STUDY

Each year Douglas College is alloca-

| ted a Work-Study budget from the

Ministry of Continuing Education and
Job Training. The Work-Study
Program provides part-time employ-
ment (5 - |5 hours per week) to full-
time students.

Students must qualify on the basis of
financial need. Eligibility is deter-
mined by the Student Finance and

 

Placement Office, after the assess-
ment of each student's Canada
Student Loan/Provincial Student Loan
and/or the information provided on the
Work-Study application form.

At this time we would like to ask for
project submissions from interested
College personnel. We are looking for
one-time (non-repeating) projects
that will be in addition to the normal
on-going activities of the department.
The projects should provide students
with opportunities to develop career-
related skills.

Work-Study Application Forms are
available from the Student Placement
Office. The deadline to submit Work-
Study Project Applications for theSpr-
ing Semester 1987 is January 12,
1987.

Thank you.

Connie Doherty, Student Placement
