Susan Redman has
more choices than
ever these days.
Since completing
the Howe Sound
Cooks Training
1 program at

Capilano College in
June, the Squamish resident now
has 55 countries worldwide where
she can choose to work. After
spending seven years as a cook
and dietary aide at the Squamish
General Hospital, Susan lost her
job last year when the facility's
operations were privatized. “I
immediately enrolled in the
cooks training program at
Capilano College,” she said.
“While taking it, I applied for a
new position at the hospital as
dietary supervisor and got the
post before I’d even completed
my practicum.” Susan started
straight away, completing the co-
op portion of the College
program on her own time. Within
days, she was promoted to the
position of site manager. Her
employer, Sodexho, provides food
and facilities management
services worldwide. It operates at
more than 500 locations in
Canada alone, including corpora-
tions, educational institutions
and health care organizations.
