George Brown partners with Royal Canadian Navy to foster WIL, new pathways

George Brown College is partnering with the Royal Canadian Navy to foster experiential learning opportunities and establish new pathways to culinary education. Through this collaboration, George Brown will offer paid work-integrated learning (WIL) experiences with the Navy for current culinary students and establish structured pathways for veterans to transition into the college’s culinary programs. Additionally, eligible serving members who have been employed as a cook in the Navy will be granted credit toward a culinary diploma or degree. “This collaboration not only provides our students with invaluable hands-on experience but also highlights the leadership, discipline, and adaptability that military members bring to the culinary industry,” said George Brown President Dr Gervan Fearon.
