Starting my journey at York School of Continuing Studies was an exciting and transformative experience. In this blog, I will share my experiences and provide some advice for future students to help them make the most of their time at York.

York University School of Continuing Studies was a great place to personally embark on my return back into the world. I have since graduated with two post-graduate certificates - one in Advanced Professional Accounting and another in Digital & Content Marketing, over the last two years. I learned different skills and gained exposure to varied aspects of businesses through each program, which proved both professionally beneficial and personally enriching. So how did these programs shape my career, and what were my experiences in it?

Have you ever had the feeling that there was a never-ending pattern in your life? That's exactly, where I was last year, stuck in a continuous cycle of work and home without learning anything new in my professional life. It was obvious that I needed a bold change—something really drastic—to shake me out of this downward spiral. I therefore made the bold decision to return to school. But not just any school would do, I wanted to attend one where I would gain practical knowledge in addition to theoretical knowledge. Thus, prepared to explore a world of endless opportunities and new beginnings, I selected York University's School of Continuing Studies.
