Sundance College’s mission is to “support student success”. All members of our team are dedicated to helping students succeed throughout their educational journey.

Students focus on 1 course at a time, rather than splitting attention among multiple courses.

Concentrated immersion into one course increases knowledge retention and academic success rates.

Most programs include a practical work experience or practicum. Practicums provide very important benefits that set you apart from other job applicants:

Experience

You will have relevant work experience in your new career field before you graduate. This helps you break into or transition into your new career.

Resume Builder

A practicum helps build your resume with experience relevant to the career you want to pursue.

References

Your practicum supervisor becomes an important reference for you in moving your career forward.

Employment

You may obtain employment through your practicum employer. In our experience, up to 50% of our students have.

Students come to Sundance College to get jobs and to move their careers forward in new directions. A key component of supporting this transition for students is assisting them in applying for and preparing for job interviews.

Sundance College offers free career services to support students with:

• Developing resumes and employment marketing materials
• Job search planning, strategies and support
• Applying for jobs
• Role-playing experience so you are prepared to walk into job interviews
