Education Builds
Opportunity

After sustaining a workplace accident in


2009, Mark Klein-Geltink was forced to
take his career in a new direction. Thats
when he turned to Conestogas Continuing
Education. Mark had previously obtained a
Bachelor of Arts in Business, and knew that
furthering his education would open new
doors by allowing him to specialize.
Mark is now a graduate of Conestogas parttime Human Resources Management program
and is currently studying in the Occupational
Health and Safety program.
I knew that these certificates, accompanied by my past
work experience in construction and manufacturing,
would make me an excellent addition to many
workplaces, Mark said.
Conestoga College wishes to thank Mark
for sharing his experience.
18

= Distance Learning

We recently had the


opportunity to speak with Mark
on his journey with Conestoga
and how it has helped build
opportunity in a new career.

Describe your pathway to Conestoga.


While working for a construction company, I
sustained a workplace accident that forced me
to change my career path. Through various job
searches, I saw the opportunities that could
result from obtaining certification in Human
Resources. I also knew an instructor in the
Occupational Health & Safety program who
encouraged me to try Human Resources.
I particularly enjoyed the Occupational Health
& Safety Legislation course within the program,
and realized that I wanted to focus on health
and safety. Thats why I decided to continue my
studies after I completed the HR Management
program.

What would you describe as some of the


strengths you found in the programs?
The flexibility of taking the courses during
the evenings and in different semesters made
completing the program manageable even with
my work, family and volunteer obligations.
The instructors are the heart of the
program. Every course Ive completed in the
Occupational Health & Safety program had an
instructor with extensive real-life experience in
the field. The hands-on learning is a strength
as well: being able to go to workplaces to see
their procedures and practices, and using the
same equipment in the classroom that would
be used in the field makes a real difference.

What positive outcomes have come from


continuing your education?
The Human Resources Management program
helped me land a job in a new field, and
completing the OHS certificate will allow me
to earn a significant raise. Continuing my
education through Conestoga gave me the
skills, knowledge and confidence I needed
to better assist my clients and move from a
Junior Consultant position to a Health & Safety
Consultant role.
Both programs provided me with crucial
networking opportunities. I have met many
students and instructors who I continue
to associate with both personally and
professionally.

If you could share advice with others


considering this course, what would it be?
Do it! Youll see how relevant it is. You can
immediately apply it to your current place of
work, or see how it fits with past employment.
Soak up the wealth of knowledge from the
instructors and use the opportunity to tap into
their experience.

Do you plan on furthering your


development by enrolling in other parttime courses with Conestoga?
After completing my OHS certificate, Ill be
taking a little break. But theres always more
to learn, and I can see myself enrolling in more
Occupational Health & Safety related courses
in the near future.

How were you able to fit the course work


into your day-to-day life?
Life is busy for everyone, but taking one
evening course per semester made the work
manageable.
I try to give 100 per cent in everything I do.
Taking courses while being a father, husband
and employee has proven to be challenging
but very rewarding at the same time. Some
nights Ive stayed up late studying, and some
weekends Ive chosen to stay in to finish
an assignment rather than go out. Overall
however, I havent needed to make too many
sacrifices to manage my course requirements
while working full-time and spending quality
time with my family. Time management and
organization have been essential, but with a
little hard work anything is possible.

Make a difference: Mental Health First Aid (HEAL1810)


Just as physical first aid is administered to an injured person before medical
treatment can be obtained, Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) is given until
appropriate treatment is found or until the crisis is resolved.
Families affected by mental health problems, teachers, health service providers,
emergency workers, frontline workers who deal with the public, volunteers, human
resources professionals, employers and community groups are just a few of the
groups who have benefited from MHFA.

Proudly offered in partnership with the Canadian Mental Health Association of

Exemption Testing & PLAR

Exemption Testing
Apprentices & Non-Apprentices

Background - The Apprenticeship Branch of the Ministry of Training, Colleges and


Universities (MTCU) has authorized community colleges to administer trade exemption
testing for apprentices and non-apprentices. Apprentices may challenge within their
community colleges the in-school portion of apprenticeship levels of the trade-specific
apprenticeship program depending on their level of expertise and time spent on the job.
Non-apprentices can likewise challenge the in-school portion of the program starting at
level one.
The exemption tests are based on the formal instruction requirements for an
apprenticeship program. To be eligible to write an exemption test, the apprentices or
non-apprentices must possess the entry requirements for the trade. Minimum age for
writing the test is 16. Trade-specific standards and entry requirements can be obtained
from the local Apprenticeship Branch of the Ministry of Training Colleges and University
(MTCU) Training Office at 519-653-5758 or at:
www.tcu.gov.on.ca/eng/employmentontario/training/certification.html
Who to Contact and How to Register - The exemption tests are written in sequential
order. For more information on the process of exemption testing for apprentices and
non-Apprentices, including obtaining the test breakdown and confirming eligibility,
please contact Daniela Stoicoiu at: dstoicoiu@conestogac.on.ca
or 519-748-5220, ext. 2260
Availability - Apprenticeship (APPR) Exemption tests are scheduled twice a month at the
Doon (Kitchener) Campus, Main Building, Lab 2A212, from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm as follows:

Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition


Earn credits for what you already know! Now you can earn Conestoga credits
through the Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition (PLAR) process.
Conestoga recognizes prior learning of skills, knowledge or competencies that have been
acquired through employment, formal and informal education, non-formal learning or
other life experiences. Prior learning must be measureable at the required academic level
and meet Conestoga standards of achievement for current courses. Challenge exams and
portfolio development are the main methods of assessment. Other methods of assessment
may be available depending upon the nature of the course objectives. Successful
completion of the assessment results in a course credit recorded on an official Conestoga
transcript. PLAR cannot be used by registered Conestoga students for the clearance of
academic deficiencies or to improve grades or to obtain admission into a program.
Who to Contact and How to Register - For more information on the PLAR process
please contact Daniela Stoicoiu at: dstoicoiu@conestogac.on.ca
or 519-748-5220, ext. 2260 or visit www.conestogac.on.ca/testing/plar.jsp
