Graduate Testimonials

Jigneshkumar Patel works in technical support at Jefferson Elora Corporation (JEC), a division of Honda Canada. His responsibilities include maintenance, preventative maintenance and trouble-shooting the robotics lines.

‘This program has allowed me to pursue my interests in mechanics and robotics without impacting my work schedule. And I believe my manager and the HR staff have noticed my initiative to upgrade my skills. I have applied for an internal position as a Robotics Technical and hope my new education will help me get the promotion.’ 

With the assistance of his company’s tuition reimbursement policy Travis T enrolled in the Robotics Technician Certificate program because it was online and allowed him to work at his own pace. In addition to the program flexibility, he especially liked the simulator as "it provided “real-world” experience."

Travis is a Project Engineer designing and installing new equipment and has had the opportunity to apply his new learning on the job. "I am currently in the process of working with several integrators to install robotics systems. Your program has given me the knowledge required to properly communicate the system design requirements."

Mike Varney works in industrial maintenance and has completed the Robotics, Automation and PLC Technician II programs. "With my background in electronics and maintenance these programs are exactly what I need to move into a Controls position."

"The aspect of the programs I liked most was the simulation labs as I can continue to use them throughout my career and keep my skills up to date. In addition I have been compensated for my broader skill set."

"Wish this was out there 20 years ago! Great job George Brown Staff."
