The new UBC-WKTEP space at #1 – 266 Baker Street in Nelson was officially opened in style on September 24, 2015. Many local community guests joined us for this event as well as University of British Columbia Dean of Education, Dr. Blye Frank, Associate Dean of Teacher Education, Dr. Wendy Carr, and WKTEP Academic Advisor from UBC-Okanagan, Dr. Leyton Schnellert.

A warm welcome to our new cohort of UBC-WKTEP teacher candidates for 2015-16. They have already had two weeks of classes in our new downtown Nelson learning centre and have helped make it a vibrant and welcoming learning environment. We’re looking forward to the year ahead.
