The Career Centre has a wide range of computer, video and print resources necessary for students to research and develop a successful career plan. Information about volunteer work, resumes and job interviews, study, work and travel abroad and post-secondary education is available. CAREER CRUISING Career Cruising has been designed with one goal in mind: to help your students plan their future. With exceptional assessment tools, detailed occupation profiles, and comprehensive post-secondary education information, students move seamlessly through the career exploration and planning process. At the same time, you have access to the real-time information and statistics you need to track your students' progress and achievement.

This enhances the students’ understanding of individual jobs in the context of the working community. Take Our Kids To Work is sponsored by The Learning Partnership, a non-profit organization of business people, educators, labour and community leaders. During the previous years of our involvement in this program, almost every Grade 9 student at Cawthra Park was able to participate and benefit from this program.
