Spotlight On 911 and Emergency Services Communications


September 2007 marks the third year that King Campus has been training emergency communications operators through the 911 and Emergency Services Communications program. Students spend two semesters preparing for careers with Police, Fire and Ambulance communication centres, private security companies, private policing, hospital switchboards, and Language Line services. The program was developed in collaboration with potential employers based on the needs of the profession and developing the "perfect employee candidate." Graduates from this program have obtained positions with organization such as York Regional Police, Thunder Bay OPP, Waterloo Region Police and On Star. Seneca grads have a high retention rate due to the skills they learn through the program. This program was featured in the latest edition of the Senecan. For more information contact Nycole Harding, program coordinator.
