according to president John Porter Porter also feels Sheridan role in the community has changed considerably since the college opened He said that many things have happened since the colleges came into existence In the minds of many people he said It was assumed that we were always going to prepare individuals for Jobs that were kind of se cond or third level In relation ship to university uates Several things have happened since then One is that all colleges developed a number of highly specialized programs where we are the best there is We have a number of examples For In stance If you want to be an animator you don have any choice You would be foolish to go anywhere but Sheridan Once you have this kind of situation it is impossible for people to say that It is second level North American society seems to have the character that the more degrees and diplomas people have the better they were and the more they would get paid We are beginning to get away from that now and Industry I think is not quite as anxious to hire overqualified people as they used to be and so specific training and education is gaining rapidly in recognition and colleges are profiting from that Evidence of this Porter said Is the steady increase in enrolment at Sheridan This year we had the largest student body we ve ever had both In full time post second in retraining and In part time Sheridan part time enrol men increased dramatically According to a provincial February Sheridan at that time had the largest part time enrolment of any college in the province Certainly there seems to be a strong interest in many people in going to college where Jobs at end of the period seem more secure its a shorter period of training and It cost as much he sold Porter feels this trend will continue The universities are going to fight it like mad They arc going to get I think a bit more innovative than hey have been Some of them are even starting to talk about Introducing programs similar to the ones we run I think It would be a shame If we started competing with each other This is an area that over next number of years is TRENT GARAGES HAUIDAY HOMES DISPLAY COURT No Prion 5500

education ally I think more and more we have to keep examining belter ways of teaching and learning We have to sharpen up our processes of dealing with people in making sure we understand them There are many things still to do I think one of our goals has to be to try and prove the communication link Porter said mm BBS Ontario Municipal Board IN THE MATTER OF on of A R SO IN THE MATTER OF
