A partnership between the University of Windsor and the Kanata North Business Association and Hub350, Canada’s largest tech hub, will help bridge the industry talent gap, foster innovation, and connect students with more than 500 companies in the technology sector, says Judy Bornais, executive director of the Office of Experiential Learning.

“Partnering with the KNBA and Hub350 is a tremendous opportunity for us to help fuel the tech park with the best and brightest student talent from the University of Windsor,” she says.

Hosting 62 UWindsor co-op students in 2022 and 60 more in 2023 makes the TD Bank Group a worthy recipient of the Co-op & Internship Employer of the Year Award from the Office of Co-operative Education and Workplace Partnerships, according to manager Kristen Morris.

“Those are incredible numbers and we are very grateful to have this partnership that is intrinsic to our work-integrated learning program,” she said. “We’re happy to celebrate and recognize TD’s commitment to the University of Windsor and want to say thank you for believing in the benefit of hiring our students.”

Completing an inventory of experiential learning courses positions the university to expand opportunities for students.
