Business Administration Human Resources Advanced Diploma
What brought you to Fanshawe?
I knew Fanshawe was known for small class sizes, tons of opportunities within the community, and I liked that the business programs were staggered. I completed my first 2 years in 2017 but still had the option to come back and finish my advanced diploma in 2020.
Tell us about your favourite Fanshawe experience.
My favourite Fanshawe experience was completing the internal audit of the school of aviation. This opportunity was an assignment based from the safety administration course, and it provided a lot of real life experience and ways to collaborate within a team environment outside of the classroom.
What impact has Fanshawe had on your life?
My time at Fanshawe has actually motivated me to pursue more education than I had ever thought I would before. I stepped down from my full time position in July 2020 to pursue my goals in human resources. I wouldn't be in the place physically and mentally that I am today without the amazing support of my professors.
What are you up to now?
In September 2021 I will be completing my final year to achieve my Bachelor of Business Administration through Okanagan College in Kelowna, British Columbia, as this was an option through the pathways program Fanshawe offered. After my degree I hope to attend law school and specialize in employment/labour law.
