Durham college vs Niagara college Welland

Durham College is situated on the traditional lands of the First Peoples of the Mississaugas of Scugog Island First Nation. These lands are covered under the Williams Treaties and rest within the traditional territory of the Anishinaabeg. They offer gratitude to the Indigenous Peoples who care for and, through the treaty process, share the lands on which we live, learn, teach and prosper today.

Located in Welland’s residential district, a strong reflection of our commitment to supporting the local communities we serve, the Welland Campus is a 90-minute drive to the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) and 2 hours to downtown  Toronto
