« Le Collège Mohawk est fier d’être un membre fondateur de la coalition C2R2, déclare Cebert Adamson, vice-président aux études. Nous savons que l’innovation ne résume pas à une seule chose. Elle est multidimensionnelle. À notre sens, elle englobe la conception de programmes intelligents, une collaboration étroite avec d’autres collèges et partenaires de l’industrie pour cerner les écarts de compétences, et des opérations qui permettent une mise en œuvre rapide des programmes. Les partenariats créent des passerelles vers les bons programmes, ceux qui permettent aux apprenants de répondre aux besoins du secteur et d’intégrer rapidement la main-d’œuvre. »
