Ellen Edwards CDP Student Award
New Westminster Award Recipient returns Honour to Douglas College Students
Ellen Edwards, long-time New Westminster resident and retired NETWERCC executive director has been the recipient of several lifetime achievement awards for her outstanding contribution to the career development practitioner sector.
A list of her awards include local, provincial and national recognition, including several from Douglas College for her tireless promotion of the Douglas College Career Development Practitioner Program.
Upon her retirement, the Douglas College, Faculty of Child, Family and Community Studies established The Ellen Edwards CDP Student Financial Award. This bursary in her name is a way to give back to the students she admires for their dedication and commitment to helping others find satisfying work and careers. Each year a $500 award will be given to a student in the Career Development Practitioner Program.
"This award will especially help students juggling family and work demands" commented Cheryl Jeffs, CDP Continuing Education faculty member. For further information about the Career Development Practitioner Program or the Ellen Edwards CDP Student Financial Award please contact 604 527 5161.
