Jessica Ryde is the Student Services contact at Fanshawe College - Simcoe Campus.
 
During the pandemic, most programmes have been adapted with on-line learning reducing in-classroom requirements. However, welding is still 70 percent hands on instruction in the shops at the Simcoe campus.
 
A new twist from the pandemic is an increased call for "at home" service vocations such as esthetics. Calls for the food service worker preparing meals "to go" are heightened in the new reality of more careers/families working remotely.
 
Norfolk County is a great place for post secondary studies. Take a virtual tour of the campus https://www.fanshawec.ca/about-fanshawe/campus/simcoe-campus
