We usually recommend desktop PCs with dual monitors for the best experience. Higher end laptops can be used as well but consider purchasing a second monitor that can be connected to the laptop.

Consider current cost effectiveness, transportability and usable life of the computer as well, ideally you want something that will perform reasonably for 3-5 years.

Within two months, she was demonstrating incredible awareness of client needs and legal challenges in family law. With her support and the foundational education in family law and legal research provided by Niagara College, I was able to add contested family law as an area of practice to my firm.

Pre-Community Services On-campus English
Niagara College opened doors in my life. This program was a springboard for me. I began taking courses in Pre-Community Services, which gave me a ‘taste’ of many career options in the helping field. As a mature student, I wanted to be sure that my investment of time was worthwhile. I found that this program allowed me many benefits, including using credits earned to transfer into a more specific helping program. When anyone tells me that they are considering going to school but not sure what to do, I encourage them to speak to guidance, and that General Arts and Science is the right place to start their college education.

Pre-Health Science Pathway to Advanced Diplomas and Degrees On-campus English
My Pre-Health Sciences experience at Niagara College has benefited me by encouraging me to make new friends, be more independent and learn more about myself. During Pre-Health, we were encouraged to work in pairs during lab and complete assignments as a group. Both of these strategies helped me to come out of my shell and reach out more to others. As well as promoting team work, Pre-Health also promoted independence by installing firm due dates for assignments which made me depend on myself to get things done on time. After achieving President’s Honour Roll at Niagara College for both terms and being accepted to the Dental Assisting program at Niagara College, I hope to apply my newfound skills in hopes of continued success.

Sport Management Business Administration On-campus English
After attending College at a previous school, I took a year off before enrolling at Niagara College. During my time as a student in the Sports Management program, I learned from a business focused curriculum with an emphasis on the sports world. Taking an unconventional route through the program, I was able to focus all my efforts on completing course curriculum, before starting my full time internship in semi-professional sport. Throughout the program I learned about marketing, media, professional selling, operating sports facilities, and even tournament management. All of these classes helped me develop as a professional, and provided me with skills and knowledge that I still use today. Niagara College not only taught me the necessary course materials to be successful, but provided me the opportunity to really think about what I wanted to do in sport. Throughout the program, you are educated on the different areas of sport, and encouraged to think about what type of career path you want to pursue. I found the faculty to be great resources when figuring out my career path, building my resume, cover letter, and finding different job opportunities. Without the help from Niagara College, I would not have had the opportunity to develop and pursue my career in sport.

I’ve done the university degree and it didn’t provide me with the experience I wanted. Lots of memorization, teaching of myself and heavily weighted exam regurgitation. I didn’t feel like I learned much or that I was very important as a student. At Niagara it is extremely hands on, I learn something in lecture one day and have to be able to understand and apply it for actual usage the very next. Classes are small and the teachers know you personally so the quality of learning and support is improved. I actually feel like I’m being prepared for what my future job entails.

When I originally decided to pursue postsecondary education I chose to attend university and was very disappointed. I just felt like a “number” that was just passing through. Transitioning to Niagara College I have a completely different perspective. Not only do we interact with more hands-on approaches, but I find the teachers always give their 100% all the time and are always willing to help or point you in the right direction. Deciding to attend NC changed my perspective on school and I enjoy attending labs and classes more so than I ever have before in a school setting. I am glad I chose to attend Niagara College!
