Fanshawe College is one of the largest, most diversified and highly respected colleges in Canada. Fanshawe results on the KPI surveys exceeded the provincial college average especially in student satisfaction in terms of quality of service, programming and resources. For the past 5 years average of KPI surveys Fanshawe employed rate is around 85% and satisfaction rate of 81% (approx).The facilities offered by the college will help me gain experience be it social, recreational or my personal development. This program brings together participants from all over the world, so I would be in contact with diverse cultures and I would also develop an international network. It would be very rewarding to share and exchange thoughts and ideas with a group of people who are from different nationalities, cultural orientations and schools of thought on one platform.
