Georgian College

Moving forward In this phase of the Power of Education campaign, we'll focus on five key areas of the student experience that will produce real results for our graduates. A new entrepreneurial edge Entrepreneurship will be a signature learning experience at Georgian College. Our grads will excel at entrepreneurial thinking, no matter what career path they choose. Georgian University Partnership Centre Expanded degree offerings will give students access to a complete postsecondary experience and a range of skills, experience and credentials, right here at home. Technology that delivers 21 st -century ways to learn Newer, better technologies will give students more choice about what, when and how they learn, and give our grads the skills they need to compete globally. Collaborative learning spaces Modern, collaborative learning spaces and advanced labs will foster innovation on campus and prepare our grads to be leaders in key growth industries. 2 3 4 5 1 A Student Service Centre A service hub will give students one-window access to everything they need to succeed, online and on campus. At Georgian, we're preparing for the second phase of our Power of Education fundraising campaign after the tremendous success of the first phase. Between 2006 and 2012, our generous donors and partners helped raise more than $40 million to support our students with new, leading-edge facilities. Now, the time has come to transform the student experience. The challenge is — and always has been — to prepare students to succeed in a world that doesn't yet exist … the one that they'll create with the skills and the training we give them today. By transforming key aspects of the student experience, we'll empower students to learn anytime, anywhere. We'll enable and expand access to learning through the strategic use of technology. And we'll produce agile, adaptive grads with the hard and soft skills to succeed in a new economy. It's an investment in our students, to be sure. But more than that, it's an investment in our families, our communities, our local economies … and the future that we'll all create, together.
