PFP prepares students by providing them with valuable,
practical, hands-on learning experiences. The program
allows students to develop competitive skills as well as
connections within the community. These experiences
and academic challenges develop the skills and
competencies to move into the real-world of policing.
"Many of our graduates are getting hired by police
services as constables or as civilians on their way to being
constables," notes Program Co-ordinator Simon Bradford.
Just before Evan graduated, he landed a job with
the Anishinabek Police Service working on Christian
Island. After two years, he moved over to Rama
Police, where he has been for almost seven years.
"I wanted to work with an Indigenous Police Service
because I felt I'd be better suited than a mainstream
police service," explains Evan. "As an Indigenous
male, you see the stereotypes, you want to break
the stereotypes. Representation matters."

• Mary Louise Noce joined the campus as
Dean, Human Services and Community
Safety on Sept. 7, 2021.
• A Truth and Reconciliation Trail was created
in the forest behind the main building. Rocks
were painted by members of the campus and
community and placed along the existing
trail. They symbolize the lives lost in Canada's
residential schools, and the trail will remain in
place in an effort toward continuous learning
for all Georgian students, staff and faculty.
• In 2020, Honours Bachelor of Counselling
Psychology degree was added to the
Human Services programs at the campus.
