In a world of constant change, a focus on lifelong learning is integral to achieving your career goals.
Priscilla Rios is a Director for Aramark Canada in Winnipeg. She found that PACE provided her with the knowledge she needed to start her career in marketing, public relations, and strategic communication.
“The PACE program has a great team of instructors,” Priscilla says. “They are willing to go an extra mile for you if they see you are taking the program seriously, and that support is priceless!”
As an international student, PACE proved to be an excellent choice for building my education and life experience with an incredibly designed program.

PACE gave me the unique opportunity to showcase my talents, improve my skills and most importantly, have fun while doing it.
