What have Students said about YES?

"I enjoyed the Fraud workshop the most because it (will help) me in the long term with life, job(s) that have money involved and my personal finance…My classmates would ask where I go third period and I would tell them about it (YES), and (they) were interested in signing up for next year." - Adeola Alabi, Bramalea SS, 2009
