Participation in the program is worth four course credits, the same amount as a standard class. The program was developed with support from the University of the Fraser Valley, a university local to Chilliwack and Abbotsford.
With the end of the 2023 school year, the 20+ year old Computer Science program was shut down due to the lack of any available Computer Science teachers in British Columbia.
