Mitchell College STAIRs Program

The STAIRs (Skills Training, Advancement and Individual Readiness) Program at Mitchell supports a kaleidoscope of learners as they transition from college into the workforce or pursuit of an advanced degree. The program was developed in response to the increasing need to support students who need extra time to achieve emotional readiness, confidence, seek employment/start careers and reach personal goals. The program builds on the inclusive nature of the Mitchell College educational experience, offering recent college graduates additional guidance, tools and support for success in their next steps. Mitchell Alumni and parents were instrumental in the conception of this program, highlighting the need for a post-graduate learning community with multiple levels of support to accommodate the unique needs of each individual, including those who are neurodivergent. Transitioning from college to independence and gainful employment is not always easy. In today’s world, you have to know how to adapt to rapid change, function as a member of different communities and navigate social situations. As part of a truly supportive cohort of young persons on a similar journey to realize their dreams, we prepare students to thrive in new and challenging environments.?Participants benefit from: Individualized Attention Personal Exploration Occupational and Research-based Skills Training Social Embeddedness Lifelong Connections
