The Transitions Program

The Transitions Program is an educational experience that empowers individuals to create a personal blueprint for the next step in their journey - with peers, facilitators and mentors who inspire, challenge and support them to realize their dreams.

Individuals are challenged, delighted and surprised with our dynamic, participatory, personal, and wisdom based teaching approach. Classes included readings, lectures, discussion, exercises, and guest presenters. Improvisational acting, yoga, tai chi, and drumming are among the activities offered throughout the course. Upon successful completion of the Transitions Program students receive a Transitions Certificate.

The course was founded on 4 years of program design and research carried on through courses at The Living University. The Curriculum Committee for this course has received input from the ministry of education, Ontario, staff at the TDSB and York Region District School Board, faculty from York University, Suzuki and Associates, and others.
