Georgian College recently shared two announcements related to student learning and research. Georgian and Schlegel Villages have partnered to open a Living Classroom in Fall 2027 at a long-term care home that is currently under construction in Barrie. Students in Georgian’s Practical Nursing and Personal Support Worker programs will be able to study at the Living Classroom and develop their practical skills by working with residents. Meanwhile, the college has created a new student research hub called the Blossom Group Commons that features interactive learning zones, independent research workstations, and flexible spaces for exchanging ideas and learning together. The hub is named in honour of a donation from Blossom Group, a local organization that provides live-in programs and care services for individuals with special needs.
