Happy Family Day British Columbians!
Why is BC Family Day unique to B.C.?

This year, Family Day in BC is on Monday, February 13, 2015.
BC Government is partnering with the BC Recreation and Parks Association to bring family friendly events to communities across BC. There are also lots of independent events taking place all over BC like skiing, festivals and entertainment. You can find events in your area here.
Launch Of New Insurance Diploma Program
Starting in the spring of 2017, triOS College Business Technology Healthcare will be introducing a new Insurance diploma program and an Insurance Specialist diploma program.
This program is designed to address the huge need for individuals to replace a retiring workforce in the insurance industry, with a sole focus on property and casualty insurance. Graduates of this program will be able to pursue positions at insurance brokers, who play a key role in the communication between the carriers that provide insurance and the public who require it.
“Companies need people who have the specific skills that belong to their industry,” says Frank Gerencser, CEO of triOS Corporation. “The goal of this program is to give students all the insurance specific skills that they need, as well as the workplace expertise that will help them succeed.”
