This month, we had the pleasure of welcoming a cohort of engineering students from Toyota Technological Institute in Japan to Niagara College (Official) as part of their customized training program.

Their experience included classroom learning followed by hands-on visits to our innovation centres, including WAMIC and HESIC.

Students explored everything from advanced manufacturing and engineering to agriculture and emerging technologies, while getting a behind-the-scenes look at how industry partnerships and applied research work in a Canadian college environment and heard directly from our students about the projects they’ve worked on with industry partners.

Thanks to the NC Global Customized Training team for the opportunity to be a part of this!
