Acknowledging the Territory

We acknowledge that the land that Fleming College is on, is the traditional territory of the Michi Saagig Anishnaabe, people of the North shore of Lake Ontario and its tributaries. Fleming College Campus locations are covered by eighteen treaties and agreements that the Michi Saagig Anishnaabe participated in from 1781 to 1923.

Fleming College has settled on this land and recognizes that the region is now home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island and the importance of respecting the voices and history of Indigenous communities. We are grateful to work on this land and will continue to build authentic and reciprocal relationships.

Fleming News and Success

Fleming College Expands Forestry Programs

Lindsay, ON (March 11, 2024) - Two new and unique Forestry programs at Fleming College are preparing students for rewarding careers in a growing industry.

Fleming’s new Forestry Equipment Operator certificate is the only one of its kind offered in Ontario. This 15-week course provides students with introductory training in heavy forestry equipment operation, forestry principles and proper safety techniques.

Providing students with hands-on learning opportunities, the course also focuses on preventive maintenance, minor repairs, forest fire preparedness, forestry operations and harvest systems.

Applied learning is a big part of Fleming’s Forestry Techniques program. This two-semester course teaches students the skills they need to conduct field work and forest management operations in the Great Lakes/St. Lawrence and Boreal Forest regions. Students graduate ready to move directly into the workforce.

Fleming has also reworked its Forestry Technician-Adaptive Practices program. The new curriculum exceeds provincial standards, teaching traditional forestry skills and studying the technical functions of creating, managing, conserving, and restoring sustainable forests in public and private operations. There is also a focus on environmental, social and economic changes within the forestry industry.

This program also includes a paid co-op, providing students with networking opportunities as they meet and work alongside professionals within the forestry industry.

All three programs are located at Fleming’s Frost Campus in Lindsay, ON.

Fleming College is a leading educator in the forestry sector. For more than five decades industry leaders have tapped into Fleming’s forestry graduates for new hiring opportunities, due to Fleming’s reputation for producing competent and skilled graduates. Fleming’s “boots-on-the-ground” approach to its Forestry programs ensures graduates are well-prepared to succeed in rewarding careers.

Fleming College Supports Menstrual Equity

Peterborough, ON (March 8, 2024) - Fleming College is celebrating the generous donation of $10,000 worth of reusable menstrual products from Aisle for Fleming students in Peterborough, Lindsay, and Haliburton.

Beginning March 4, donated Aisle products, including reusable panties, pads, and liners in a variety of sizes XS to 5XL, will be available to students through the Fleming Student Administrative Council (SAC) at the Sutherland Campus and the Frost Student Association (FSA) at the Frost Campus.

Based in Vancouver, BC, Aisle is a Certified B Corp known for being the original creators of sustainable and gender-inclusive period underwear and cloth menstrual pads. Dedicated to promoting menstrual equity around the world, Aisle donates two percent of their sales toward supporting individuals and non-profits to address period poverty and gender equity.

Fleming College, SAC and the FSA have been offering free period products in college bathrooms for several years. Fleming students can also attend a series of free workshops with The Period Purse, which aims to reduce period stigma and create menstrual equity through access, education, and advocacy, and providing free period products for all.

To ensure all Fleming students experience equitable access, products will also be available through Indigenous Student Services (Peterborough and Lindsay), Haliburton School of Art + Design, and our Language Instruction for Newcomers to Canada program in Peterborough Square.

We want to thank all our distribution partners for their dedication to students, without them this initiative would not have been possible.

Choose an Exciting and Diverse Career in Drilling

Lindsay, ON (March 7, 2024) - Choose where you want to work. Choose who you want to work for.

For Fleming College Resource Drilling Technician (RDT) students, this is a reality. Upon graduation, these highly skilled students are stepping into lucrative paying positions within a rapidly expanding industry.

Fleming College is the only post-secondary institution in North America offering a two-year diploma program in drilling. It is also the only RDT program that encompasses technical training and theory with an intense focus on hands-on learning.

A common first semester allows students to explore different career paths and provides them with a well-rounded education which covers everything from math and communications to rock and soil analysis. RDT students can also obtain their Indigenous Perspectives Designation, a distinction unique to Fleming College, and considered an asset to employers.

Most of the program is dedicated to hands-on training, using the same equipment students will use in the field. Most of that equipment has been donated to the college by leading members of the drilling industry.

Students also learn how to diagnose equipment issues and repair machinery in the field, a skill that can potentially save employers thousands of dollars.

The demand for Fleming College drilling graduates allows students to choose their adventure and start their careers on their terms, whether they want to live in Downtown Toronto and enjoy the city life or are more on the adventurous side and want to take a helicopter to work.

Careers in the drilling industry can vary widely, from owning your own company, working in a management position or specializing in a niche aspect of drilling.

A Geotechnical driller is needed at the start of every large construction project, to conduct a subsurface investigation and drill for soil samples. Construction drilling is utilized in roadwork, infrastructure projects and building bridges.

Drillers are an essential part of well design, construction, and maintenance. Horizontal directional drilling is used to get underneath roads, rivers, and streams. Environmental drilling focuses on obtaining soil and water samples for analysis to control and remediate contaminates. This work is done around fuel service stations, mines, landfills, and abandoned buildings.

Fleming is launching a new component to its program in the fall of 2024 which focuses on the growing field of Geothermal drilling. This new aspect to the program will put Fleming students at the forefront of the green energy sector.

The RDT program is open to both domestic and international students.

Each student receives an automatic bursary of $500 at the start of their second semester and there are 19 scholarships and bursaries available to drilling students, totaling more than $32,000. Some of these scholarships are available specifically to women looking to start a career in skilled trades.

Fleming College students can be proudly found in every aspect of the North American drilling sector. Many of the program’s alumni are now industry leaders, working in management positions or entrepreneurs with their own companies.

Year after year those industry leaders return to Fleming College, looking to hire Fleming students with the same high-quality education they received.

The Resource Drilling Technician Program is located at Fleming College’s Frost Campus in Lindsay, ON. Visit here for more information and to schedule a tour of the campus.
