The Civil Engineering Technology program is designed to train students in the design of highway, transportation, and municipal systems. The first year of training covers engineering technology basics such as engineering science, materials technology, surveying, and drafting. Many courses are common with other technology programs and may be used for credit transfer. In the second year, students focus on subjects that relate to highway and municipal systems, including highway engineering, water, and sanitary systems, fluid mechanics, and environmental planning.

Students will learn and apply the knowledge and skills throughout the program in a real, practical, and simulated environment through lectures, extensive hands-on activities, and individual or team projects.

Structural experts plan with durability in mind. They assist in the design and construction of building systems and perform site inspections and testing. You’ll learn about steel, timber and reinforced concrete design, soils and materials testing, and quantity surveying. Our two-year program and industry work experience also provides general communication and mathematics skills for making your mark on the business world. Structural experts are efficient thinkers and central figures in every building design.

The Client Service and Sales program appeals to those seeking a career in client service industries. With a focus on contact centres, students learn the cornerstone skills of customer service, communication, and sales techniques to build relationships with clients. Throughout this program, students acquire the interpersonal skills and best practices to build performance excellence and increase productivity. The program enables students to confidently interact with a team and identify one’s immediate and long-term impact as a business asset within various sectors (e.g., finance, insurance, telecommunications, and hospitality).  Students are introduced to supervisory skills and managerial principles to better prepare them for leadership opportunities. Emphasis is placed on developing and enhancing the required verbal and written communication skills to confidently engage clients, interact with internal and external stakeholders, and provide quality customer service.
 
The Client Service and Sales program may be delivered through a combination of in-class and on-line instruction. Simulations and real-life examples may be used to support hands-on communication, sales, and keyboarding practice during the learning of "talk-tech-type" engagement with clients. Students develop the necessary technical skills to perform in a multi-faceted and fast-paced contact centre environment. Opportunities to visit a contact centre highlight industry’s commitment to this training and give a first-hand look at career possibilities.
 
A workplace experience at the end of the program provides students with exposure to a contact centre facility during which they learn about the operations of a contact centre, observe client service representatives in action, and relate their experience to their newly acquired knowledge and skills.  This experience also provides students with networking and relationship-building opportunities.
