Look where they are now!

A scant 12 months ago, we welcomed 41 eager new students to the CC+PR program.  They all planned to enter the field of Public Relations and Corporate Communications. 

A recent survey of these same students reveals many are working “in the biz” as a direct result of taking this program.

Where are they?  Our latest report shows students working fulltime,  and on contract , for these exciting Toronto-based organizations:

  • Hill and Knowlton Public Relations
  • Fleishman Hillard Public Relations
  • Environics Communications
  • Fastlife International
  • Markham Stouffville Hospital
  • Ontario Tourism Marketing Partnership Corporation
  • MS&L
  • St. Elizabeth Health Care
  • the Linden School
  • RBC Insurance
  • Hillel of Greater Toronto
  • Freshbooks.

And, our January students are completing their eight-week Field Placement internships with these varied organizations:

  • Ontario Dental Association
  • Alzeimer’s Society of Ontario
  • Christian Children’s Fund Canada
  • St. John’s Rehabilitation
  • iStudio Canada
  • Arthritis Society
  • Siren Communications
  • Industry Canada
  • ALS Society
  • Town of Richmond Hill
  • HBC
  • Harbourfront
  • OMERS
  • Celestica

Students joining us this September 2 can look forward to similar doors opening for them. 

All it takes is talent, commitment, hard work and taking advantage of all this program has to offer.
