🍁 A Time for Gratitude, Community & Togetherness

Thanksgiving reminds us that there is always something to be grateful for — the opportunities we receive, the people who support us, and the communities that help us grow.

At ISS Language and Career College of BC (LCC), we're especially thankful for our students, educators, staff, and community partners who make our classrooms places of learning, connection, and new beginnings.

Every journey is different, but it's the people we meet along the way who make it meaningful.

📢 Thanksgiving Holiday Closure

Please note that LCC will be closed on Monday, October 12, 2026, in observance of Thanksgiving. Regular operations will resume on Tuesday, October 13.

From all of us at LCC, we wish you and your loved ones a warm, peaceful, and meaningful Thanksgiving! 🍂

September 30 is the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation—a day to honour the children who never returned home, Survivors of residential schools, their families and Indigenous communities.

It is also an opportunity to listen, learn and reflect on our shared responsibility to advance reconciliation.

Please note that the LCC office will be closed on Wednesday, September 30, in observance of this important day.

A new temporary IRCC public policy may make short-term education more accessible for eligible work permit holders in Canada.

Under the policy, individuals holding a valid work permit may study in a course or program lasting six months or less without obtaining a separate study permit. Studies must be completed within six months or before the work permit expires—whichever comes first.

The policy took effect on September 4, 2026, and is scheduled to remain in place until December 31, 2027.

At LCC, part of ISSofBC, we see this as a meaningful opportunity for workers to strengthen their English, build practical skills and pursue professional development while continuing to work in Canada.

We have published an article explaining:

• Who may be eligible
• How long eligible workers can study
• Important employment and immigration considerations
• What to review before enrolling

An important update for our community:

We have summarized the official information, what affected students should do next and where continuing updates can be found.

Our thoughts are with the students, staff, families and education partners affected by this closure.

“Could you repeat that?”

It may sound like a simple question. But when you hear it repeatedly, it can begin to change how you participate.

You may avoid making a phone call, stay quiet during a meeting, let someone else order for you or hesitate before introducing yourself. The real cost is not just repeating a sentence—it may be the confidence you gradually lose.

LCC’s Pronunciation class provides a supportive space to practise clearer speech and become more confident in everyday, workplace and community conversations.

Your accent is part of who you are. The goal is not to erase it—it is to help others understand the ideas, knowledge and experience you already bring.

While helping one of our clients explore office-administration opportunities on LinkedIn, we noticed something interesting.

The search showed several different positions:

✓ Administrative Assistant
✓ Project Assistant/Office Administrator
✓ Partner Administrative Assistant
✓ Administration Clerk
✓ Executive Assistant

Although every position and employer has different requirements, many office-based careers are built on a similar foundation: organization, workplace technology, bookkeeping, payroll, professional communication and leadership.

Many people already have some of these abilities—but may lack the formal training and confidence to present them professionally.

LCC’s Office Management & Leadership Diploma helps learners build a versatile skill set that can support their pursuit of different administrative and office career paths.

The job title may change. The skills you develop stay with you.

Eligible students may qualify for significant tuition support.
