Why Centennial?

Why Centennial? 

Centennial College is recognised as one of the most culturally diverse colleges in Canada, welcoming more than 14,000 international and exchange students in 2022. Delivering a variety of program's from Hospitality, Sciences, to Law and Court Services.  Centennial College has five campuses in the Greater Toronto Area. Founded in 1966, Centennial is recognized as one of the most culturally diverse post-secondary institutions in Canada.

By taking part in this opportunity, students will learn and discover about the program's they study all within subject area, such as Health Studies and communication skills, business studies, motor vehicle. 

 Dr. Craig Stephenson, President and CEO of Centennial College believes in “the power of education to expand students’ worldviews and strengthen intercultural understanding” (Dr. Craig Stephenson, 2023). 

I feel this opportunity would allow myself, and students within the college the opportunity to do just that.

Students will achieve the benefits from studying abroad, such as forming international connections, exposure to different cultures and viewpoints, providing the opportunity to become a global citizen, experience the variations in teaching methods and awards available. As well as being able to experience time on another country, discovering new hobbies, insights to the country. And a great story to tell the grandkids!

Dr. Craig Stephenson

Today Kerryn and I met with Dr. Craig Stephenson, President and CEO of Centennial College (2019-2024). Craig spoke about his experiences at Centennial College, and we were excited to Learn that previous to working at Centennial Craig worked in the University of Cumbria  - so a lot closer to home!  Craig spent time discussing with us the differences he has noticed moving over to Toronto and about his experiences here.  A lovely opportunity for Kerryn and I to connect with Faculty at Centennial, and look forward to continue communications in the future.

Animal Welfare

We unfortunately were not able to get a behind the scenes tour but there were three observation windows in the back of the center, one had a view into the operating room, there were no operations being performed but it was really interesting to be able to see the set up and how it was different to the set-up of some of the operating rooms I have seen in Scotland. Then next room was a room that some animals are rehabilitated in and currently there was no animals, however lucky window three was a one-way mirror into a care room where there was pigeon's, orphaned racoons and orphaned opossums where being feed and cared for.   TNR Course – Trap-Neuter and return.
