We believe our graduates are the best evidence of our program.
They are volunteers, partners, ambassadors, advocates, and donors.
They strive to improve well-being, and improve life. They are your nurse. They are your future doctor. They are your social worker. They are your physiotherapist. They live in Kelowna, across Canada, and all around the globe, and they work in healthcare because they want to make a difference.
Our talented, capable, and motivated graduates are the best evidence of our top class student experience. Our faculty’s mission is to continue to build our relationship with our alumni, and we invite you to share your career and education experiences with us.
