On behalf of the Mailroom, I would like to notify/inform that due to ongoing faculty strike we are unable to receive any deliveries coming into the College and ship out couriers and mail. We have been notified by drivers from various courier companies and Canada Post that they have been turned around by the picketers at the picket line. This will  affect the mailroom operations and cause delays in receiving, delivering, shipping any parcels/couriers and mail. We ask for your patience and hope for a quick resolution so the operations can return back to normal.

Thank you.

There has been an increase in cyber security threats and malicious code being delivered by phishing scams targeting colleges and universities in Canada and the US.

Don’t take the Bait!

Phishing are Internet schemes that pose as a legitimate source to trick people into handing over personal information or downloading malicious software,

Cyber Security Awareness Month (CSAM) is an internationally recognized campaign held each October to inform the public of the importance of cyber security. This campaign is focused on helping all Canadians be more secure online, by being informed and knowing the simple steps to take to protect themselves, their families, their workplace and their devices.
