January 13th CEC welcomes Laurier Senior High School Students!

Today we are spending a GREAT day with Secondary III students from Laurier Senior High School.  Today these students learned how to land a plane (no crashing! BRAVO), explored engineering structures and careers, worked through Graphic Design module and braved taking the straight forward Pre-test to demonstrate their prior knowledge of GRAPHIC DESIGN!

Jeffrey a volunteer Vanier CEGEP student and myself have enjoyed showing these students the different modules and program areas for their potential future career paths.

Thank you Jeffrey!
