“I find the services Contact North offers to be a positive addition to our northern community, helping to fill in the gaps formed via our distance from major population centres and the lack of education opportunities inherent to northern communities.

“From my experience, e-learning options can provide a beneficial addition to one’s knowledge base. A wide variety of learning from basic skill building to more specialized education offers something to match most everyone’s needs.

“I came to Contact North with the intent of finding courses of general interest and supplementary education to my field of media production, I was directed to free learning resources that gave me greater awareness in my particular field of media technology, highly beneficial to have such specialized knowledge. In addition to that, completion of the Lambton College Exploring Diversity & Equity certificate program … is an excellent way to bolster one’s resume while partaking in general knowledge building and the leisure of attending a college course completely online and at one’s own pace.

“I believe free online and in-person education resources are a must for those wishing to transition into another field or fill in the gaps needed to progress in their career goals.”
