I did not think that I would be continuing the rest of my Hospital Support Specialist program online, taught through a webcam. It has taken some time to adjust to these new circumstances but every day I try and find things to make myself feel some sort of normalcy.
My name is Michelle Dann and I’m currently taking the Hospital Support Specialist program at Stenberg College. I am 23 years old and have been working for the past five years at a car dealership. Working full time at the same job for years can be very draining and exhausting when you’re working hard and…
The best part of Stenberg’s education that I’ve truly enjoyed the most, so far, has been the change in learning style. From being in a classroom to doing clinical and off-site computer work at Surrey Memorial Hospital, I have learned a copious amount of knowledge in the past few months in my Hospital Support Specialist…
I remember the day I first learned about Stenberg College’s Hospital Support Specialist program.

Today we saw the new cohort of Stenberg’s Hospital Support Specialist program, and it just made me think on how far I have come in this program.
I think class bonding goes all the way back to kindergarten. All classes, no matter what grade or curriculum is being taught, are going to form a bond, and sometimes little “families” within that big group of people are also forged. I have experienced this all my life, as many others probably have as well. I…
Twelve weeks in and four instructors later and we are still here! As with any other school we have had different instructors for each Hospital Support Specialist course we are given. Each one has had their own specialty and approach to how they communicate and teach us, however there is one in particular who has…
