Discover Your Future in Healthcare
There are more options in the field of healthcare than you may have imagined!
The Discover Your Future in Healthcare series will feature 15 different occupations from the heathcare sector. Sessions will include a professional (or two) from the field and admissions and information on academic programming will also be highlighted.
You will have the opportunity to learn valuable information about the occupation, including:
- Details about position types, specializations and where you could work
- Demand for this occupation and other relevant labour market information
- Academic program and admissions information
Sessions include the obvious, such as doctor, physician assistant, or nurse, but also present occupations many don’t realize exist — such as health researcher, midwife, or genetic counsellor. Learn more about the options in healthcare as professionals speak about the occupation, their position, and experiences in the role.
