"This book offers study skills and practices for college and university students to help them make a positive transition to post-secondary education, learn how to be a successful student, and make the most of their learning experience.

The course can be used an elective course towards the BC Adult Graduation Diploma. Students don't need to be taking a Student Success course to benefit from this text. Post-secondary students can use this material to help them become better, more successful students. Faculty can use any parts of it to give to their students in any of their courses as applicable. Others (anyone) can use applicable life skills chapters. The book is written so each chapter stands on its own as an independent topic and doesn't require knowledge of previous chapters, so students and instructors can use only the sections they need"--BCcampus website.

"First aid is the provision of immediate care to a victim with an injury of illness, usually effected by a lay person, and performed within a limited skill range.

Communication is arguably the most important of all life skills and plays a significant role in all aspects of work and home life.
