Eastern College

Being a mature student, and not having any previous electrical job experience, I was sceptical I’d find work here in NB as an electrical apprentice. Even with good grades and having successfully passed my block 1 exam, I was doubtful. My instructor and the staff at Eastern College succeeded in finding a local electrical company willing to give me a chance for a four weeks work placement with them. My positive attitude, work ethic and maturity combined with what I had learned at Eastern College, worked in my favour. All my hard work finally paid off and they decided to keep me on as a full time apprentice. I’ve been working there since completing the work placement, and it feels great. Thanks especially to my electrical instructor and all his efforts, I’m now working towards completing my license as an electrician.

Went back to school at Eastern College, then CompuCollege. It was an great experience. I was always able to go to staff if I had issues

I have been attending Eastern College for a year and half so far, and all I can say is this school is a very welcoming environment, where you feel welcome and as though you belong here. Its a great place to come for an education, the staff and teachers are always friendly and will go out of their way to help you with anything, the teachers are very understanding and you can tell their one goal is to make sure you have a great education and to set you up for a great career path. The campus director is always friendly, and always goes out of her way to do nice things for the students that are enrolled here. It's all in all a great college.

Ami (director of saint john campus) is a wonderful person who is very empathetic, and does what she can to help her students indiviually. She makes me feel safe and that i can go to her about anything. She shows that my education and future are just as important to her as they are to me. She represents the school and her students to the fullest. She is all around a great person and director.

always professional and friendly to all students and other staff. I really appreciate the respect that they all have towards eachother and especially all of the students.
