Student Development Officer
Student Development Officers (SDO) provide students with services of a non-academic nature. Specifically, SDOs may be involved with student government, peer tutoring, and assisting students with financial aid information. The officer acts as a liaison between the students and administration of the campus and serves as a direct contact for employment-related issues.
This involves delivering job-search seminars, promoting graduates to potential employers, and gathering information related to student and graduate employment, including surveys of students and graduates. SDOs are also responsible for organizing and conducting a high school liaison program as well as participating in career fairs and trade shows. The Student Development Officer organizes and coordinates a number of social and recreational events throughout the college year. Clubs, sport teams, recreational activities, and special events contribute to the general well-being of students. Students and/or potential students are encouraged to contact the Student Affairs/Employment Officer at their campus to find out more about the services available.

Library facilities are available at all college campuses. Each library/learning resource centre exists primarily to support the programs offered at that campus. Included in the collections are a variety of print and non-print resources.
Library staff are available for a range of services including: instruction on the use of the library and its various resources, research assistance, and training on how to access information from CD-ROM databases and the Internet. All requests for assistance are welcome.
These centres, located at various campuses, are an integral part of each Learning Resource Centre in that they provide a place for students who seek remedial help, especially in the areas of Mathematics and Communication Skills. These centres also have a wide array of career resource materials including computer interactive career education programs such as CHOICES as well as a computerized job search program called the National Graduate Registrar (NGR).
Each campus elects a student council at the beginning of each academic year. This council is governed by a constitution and has responsibility for planning and organizing various extra-curricular activities on behalf of the student body. The council has a faculty advisor, usually a Student Services professional.
Bookstore
Textbooks for all courses are available at the college bookstore on each campus and should be purchased at the time of registration.
