Their mentors encouraged me to enjoy writing and taught me how to write efficiently.
And, I had wonderful experiences with UPEI's Experiential Education department. I would not be able to be where I am personally and professionally without their help! Their workshops and services helped me expand my career network and find out about job opportunities, and they also taught me effective communication skills and strategies for job hunting.
