As a Sprott Shaw College student, one of the most exciting and highly anticipated moments of completing your education – other than obviously crossing the stage at your graduation ceremony! – is “ringing the bell” at your home campus.
So, what does “ringing the bell” mean? As a dedicated place of learning, Sprott Shaw is extremely proud of our students who not only graduate from our programs, but also secure a permanent work position as well – especially those that secure one even before graduation! With how proud we are of all of our very accomplished students, we invite them to return to their studying campus to ring the bell and signify the start of their new chapter.
For our graduates, ringing the bell not only celebrates their achievements, but symbolizes the beginning of their new chapter with their dream career. We take great pride in our students and love to see how far they go after receiving an education from our practical institution.
Ringing the bell also gives students a chance to celebrate their distinguished work opportunity with those who helped and supported them in their journey along the way – including teachers, peers, staff, classmates, and other faculty members. After qualifying graduates ring the bell, all students and staff in all classrooms come out to offer their congratulations!
Receiving an employment offer is something students should be proud of and celebrate!
Our alumni and past students have been hired at established local and global companies like BC Hydro, Vancouver School District, Houle Electric, Fraser Health Authority, Ministry of Transportation, Bank of Montreal, Allwest Electrical Ltd., Vancouver Coastal Health, Coast Capital Savings, Abbotsford School District, BC Children’s Hospital, Best Western, Marriott Hotel, Berts Electric, and many more!
All 16 of our campuses have a bell so make sure you “ring the bell” when you graduate and land your dream career!
Check out our gallery collection of previous Bell Ringers above and below! Be on the lookout for their stories on our social media and blogs – you could even be one of them!
