A construction skills demonstration was offered in the main foyer and the Law, Justice & Community Services faculty piloted a focused program with three interactive activities for students with an interest in law and justice studies.  Visitors took tours of the campus and residences and learned about Fleming’s student services such as financial aid, bursaries and scholarships, and learning supports. Students also had the opportunity to explore sports and recreation at Fleming and to discuss their academic options with faculty representatives in Fleming’s academic schools.CIP is a six-week initiative offered by Ontario Colleges. College representatives travel throughout Ontario to ensure senior secondary school students, their parents, teachers, and guidance counsellors have the opportunity to meet college representatives to explore the more than 900 programs offered across the Ontario college system.
