\nEducation Assistant Program at Ridge Meadows College<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you or someone you know may be interested in a career working with children and youth with diverse abilities, Ridge Meadows College (operated by SD42) still has seats available for the September cohort of its Education Assistant (EA) program.<\/p>\n

The demand for this job is high as the province faces a shortage of EAs and virtually all graduates of the program move on to work in school districts across B.C., including Maple Ridge \u2013 Pitt Meadows School District No. 42. Courses take place Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday evenings and sometimes on Saturdays.<\/p>\n
