CAMBRIAN COLLEGE

A typical day at work would start with checking if there are tests to be proctored, if so lead students towards the designated room and begin the test maintaining student confidentiality. If there are not students, check to see if there are any tests to deliver, and if there is continue to designate mail boxes around the school. Once you are back return to the student proctor room and wait to fill out forms for students to book their tests.

The Glenn Crombie center assists students with disabilities, I have learned that there are different obstacles each student takes while going to school. I am happy to be a part of helping students using the center to aid them in their studies.

Our management are very helpful and enthusiastic workers who are always willing to help when needed. They are clear and firm on their decisions, which are appreciated when working with students writing tests.

There are full time co-workers at the Glenn Crombie Centre as well as fellow student proctors at the center. The center works quite smoothly and the staff is very helpful.

The hardest part of the job would be the number of rules per specific student; however we are given a manual to aid us in an outline per student which is easier to refer to when there is a complication.

Most enjoyable part of the job is being able to work along other students and in between classes. It is a great opportunity at the college.

Review for Cambrian College (Part-Time Professor Experience)

Teaching at Cambrian College as a part-time professor has been a rewarding and meaningful experience. The environment is supportive, with approachable leadership and a strong emphasis on student success. I’ve appreciated the college’s commitment to providing quality education while giving instructors the autonomy to bring their industry knowledge into the classroom.

The administrative staff and program coordinators are responsive and helpful, making it easier to focus on delivering engaging and impactful lessons. Cambrian also offers access to professional development opportunities, encouraging instructors to continually grow alongside their students.

Overall, Cambrian fosters a collaborative, respectful atmosphere where both educators and learners can thrive. It has been a pleasure being part of a community that values education, innovation, and real-world skill development.

When you begin a career at Cambrian College, you have the opportunity to move to other departments and to advance. If you teach, you can teach in several departments or in just one. If you are support staff, you can move around to get valued experience in other areas.

The most enjoyable part of the job is working with students. It is an honour to be able to help people to learn, study, take tests, do placement work, etc. Cambrian WANTS students to suceed! They value student success.

Cambrian College also values its employees. They have great benefit packages which includes PROACTIVE things to help with work stress such as massage therapy. The campus has a highly successful wellness program to help students and staff.

It was a job that I enjoyed and looked forward to going to every day.
The staff and students were friendly and cooperative.  My day was normally busy but organized.

As coordinator of this program I taught computer hardware and operating systems. I learned from my students every day. Most time was spent in labs and troubleshooting...the students loved it and so did I. The most enjoyable part of the job was preparing students for the career they had chosen for themselves. I had 32 months to help them change from kids to young computer professionals who were worth employing in the computer field. Some students chose to start their own businesses and became successful entrepreneurs in their technical field.

What is the best part of working at the company?
I get to teach my trade to students who are interested in what I am good at.

Open, welcoming, fun, accepting. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Very structured yet challenging

My typical day at Cambrian consisted of updating school applications, talking to new students, parents, teachers of various high schools and entering international students into the school registration department.
I learned what requirements are needed for limited enrollment programs and how much I enjoyed working in a fast paced environment and helping people from other parts of the world succeed in college.

A typical day would require developing practice plans according to the opponents we were facing that week. I learned that being in a Varsity atmosphere as a coach requires the development and skill of the sport but it is as important to teach hard work and team work not only on the basketball court but in life as well. Management was great. Atmosphere was great. Hardest part was changing the culture of the team. Most enjoyable part was teaching the game that I love.

For this job I get to work at numerous places within the northern ontario region. This job entails me to talk to people and pose as a branding oppertunity for Cambrian College. I go to events and represent Cambrian and promote the Lil' Big Rig. I am outside usually for 8 hours or more and it is mostly weekends. The hardest part of this job though is avoiding getting sun burnt! My favourite part of this job is getting to interact with many people of all ages.
