Haileybury Campus - Students come from across Ontario to study in the modern Veterinary Sciences Centre at the Haileybury Campus. Get leading-edge training in state-of-the-art labs equipped with the latest technology like our underwater treadmill. Check out programs like the three-year Veterinary Technology – Wildlife Rehabilitation program; the only one of its kind in Ontario!

Kirkland Lake Campus - The School of Welding Engineering Technology at the Kirkland Lake Campus keeps building on its international reputation as a leader in the field of welding education and training. We were the first in North America to become an authorized training body for the International Institute for Welding (IIW). Kirkland Lake rarely sees a dull moment.

Moosonee Campus - A satellite Trades Centre in Moosonee, linked to the Centre of Excellence for Trades and Technology at the Timmins Campus, provides high-skills training in technology, trades and apprenticeship programs to James Bay coastal communities. The town of Moosonee is a vibrant, tightly-knit community located 19 kilometres south of James Bay on the Moose River. While its population of just over 1,725 may seem small, the town’s size is actually one of its biggest advantages.

Timmins Campus - Start your trade or technology career in one of northern Ontario’s newest training facilities. The Centre of Excellence for Trades and Technology at the Timmins Campus offers cutting-edge programming in trades and engineering technology. One of only two publicly-funded colleges in Ontario that have an on-campus burn building that provides our students with real-world firefighting training, along with over 40,000 square feet state-of-the-art one of a kind integrated emergency services facility that houses our Emergency Services Programs, alongside active, working Emergency Services providers. Nursing training labs and cutting-edge simulation equipment provide a variety of authentic health care scenarios to facilitate your transition into the clinical setting. Our on-site medical clinic at the Timmins Campus offers hands-on, practical experience. Timmins is the ultimate fusion of the urban and the rural. On the one hand, it’s big enough to provide all of the amenities and services expected of a larger city, while on the other, it’s small enough to ensure that you’re never far from the outstanding landscape northern Ontario is known for.
