Student Experience and Opportunity

Edge Program

In October 2020, StFX launched the Engage, Develop, Grow Your Employability (EDGE) Program to help students registered with the Tramble Centre for Accessible Learning receive tailored career development services, including workshops, one-on-one career coaching, and employment transition supports. 

StFX has secured two years of funding to hire a Career Transition and EDGE Coordinator, whose role is to increase the students' self-awareness, career goals, workplace connections and employability in Nova Scotia.
