The Olds College Horticulture Program will be hosting its first employer’s presentation morning on February 2, 2017. The presentation concept was developed from discussions at the Horticulture Industry Advisory Committee meeting on December 1, 2016 evolving into a “speed” presentation format. The format structure provides each employer 10 minutes to promote their organization and 5 minutes for student’s question. Students attending the presentations will be from the first year (Certificate), second year (Diploma) and third year (Bachelor of Applied Science) Horticulture Programs. After the morning presentations, accommodations will be made for employers to have one-on-one sessions with students seeking further information and opportunities to provide resumes.
The Olds College Horticulture Program is seeking to have 12 employers representing a broad range of sectors from the horticulture industry to participate as presenters, which leads to selection of potential presenter organizations not being based on a first come, first serve basis.
For those organizations interested in participating in the event, please respond by January 27, 2016 to Gord Koch, gkoch@oldscollege.ca or 403.556.4751
