Many programmes include real practicum placements, giving students the chance to step directly into real workplaces while they study.
At Assiniboine College, students in the food processing programme have the opportunity to complete placements with companies like Maple Leaf Foods in Brandon, Ontario.
During their practicum, they get to see how a major food company operates from the inside, gaining exposure to areas like food safety and quality assurance, health and safety, human resources and finance.
These placements can turn into real career pathways.
