The Industrial Mechanics programme at the Community College on Grandview Avenue has gotten a bit of help with a donation from Canaport L-N-G........A forklift with a value of 96 thousand dollars.
The Industrial Mechanics program has an 85 per cent employment rate after graduation. President and C-E-O Marilyn Luscombe tells CHSJ News the overall rate for graduates is 90 per cent which might explain the popularity of attending community college so more spaces are being made available.
Luscombe says the number of places for students to take courses at the Community College has been going up with 140 more this academic year following an increase of 250 the previous year.
Last June saw the largest number of graduates, over 2 thousand students provincewide.
