Niagara College and Mohawk College have established a partnership focused on training healthcare workers. Through this agreement, each college will reserve seats in health programs that are not offered by the other institution—such as Mohawk’s Cardiovascular Technology program or Niagara’s Dental Hygiene program—for pre-health graduates from the partner institution. Work placements will be primarily be located within each institution’s region to help ensure students are prepared for the needs of their home communities. “The agreement with Niagara College shows how colleges can leverage each other’s strengths to address critical workforce needs in our communities,” said Mohawk VP Academic Cebert Adamson. The articulation agreement has been praised by local health organizations for creating more pathways into in-demand healthcare roles.
