You learn by doing, and that's what we're all about. We focus on experiential learning so you get hands-on experience which is effective in absorbing new and important information. We want to prepare you for success by giving you real-world situations to problem solve, make decisions, collaborate and plan. Employers love when you have this experience and have been exposed to industry to enhance your essential skills.
We want to make sure you'll be job ready when you graduate and our programs have so many experiential learning opportunities to support this! Our programs offer a mix of simulation training, capstone projects, work placements, clinical placements, co-op, field camps, student jobs, apprenticeships, artistic showcases, job shadowing, outdoor learning, virtual reality, and projects and partnerships with organizations.
