It’s an absolute pleasure to welcome you to this gem of an institution – where a journey of discovery, growth, and achievement will unfold: introducing you to new ideas and perspectives, helping you build your skills and confidence, and, ultimately, preparing you for the word that awaits!

This is YOUR time to shine, and I know, with a little help from my colleagues, that you’re more than ready to make a difference. Our dynamic and dedicated faculty are here to

support you every step of the way by fostering an inclusive and engaging learning environment that integrates applied and experiential skills development, self-discovery, critical reflection, and academic achievement. They, along with success advisors, librarians, counsellors, and many others, are committed to enabling you to deliver upon your dreams and goals!

Hence this handbook – your guide to navigating the world of post-secondary education, ranging from the simple to the complex. Learning who people are and what they do, but also discovering what is expected of you, what a model route is and how to secure financial support, to name but three examples. In short – this is not a guide you want to glance at once, but to have at hand to dip in and out of throughout your journey with us. 

And while we appreciate that learning can be fun, enriching, and transformative, we also appreciate that it can, at times, be challenging. So, please use this guide to take full advantage of the supports and services we offer and to explore the many co-curricular and extra-curricular opportunities that will enable you to pursue learning and career opportunities that are meaningful to you.

Thank you for choosing Centennial College. We are here for you and truly wish you every success in your academic journey with us.
