About Western Canada Collaborative of Health Sciences Educators Society
About Us
The original group: BC Lab Educators was founded by Cheryl Entwistle (Retired UBC), Leslie Stuart (North Island College), and Marilyn Lewthwaite (Douglas College).
These visionary educators came together over 20 years ago, to find solutions to the everyday issues of educating nurses. Without their leadership, this group would never have come together.
As we continue to evolve and grow, WCCHSE welcomes educators from all health science programs. Please use this site and WCCHSE events as a resource to support the education of future healthcare providers.

We hope you will join us in this collaboration.
