Program Planning — for every program we deliver, there needs to be a thorough and intentional program plan created for each.

Favourite Memory from time at Fanshawe

I felt a great deal of satisfaction and pride when it came time to deliver our community event as part of the Special Events and Governance course. Recognizing that everyone in the class worked together to put this event on — and seeing it all come to fruition so smoothly — was very rewarding for ourselves and for the community.
