Grant: Applied Research and Development Grants - Level 1
Centennial College
$25,000.00
Development of a unique placement referral system to streamline recruitment processes
EF 2018-19
Résumé
Techno Canada Centre of Excellence is a Toronto based company operating in the higher education sector for several years. Techno Canada is partnering with Centennial College's WIMTACH (Wearable, Interactive and Mobile technologies Access Centre in Health) to develop CollegeCornerStone, a faculty driven, placement referral system for students. This web platform will enable faculty to connect their students directly with coops, internships, entry level jobs and other opportunities. Faculty will do this by leveraging their professional networks built during the span of their careers to provide referrals. Proposed system will therefore greatly streamline and simplify the process of connection making. This will benefit companies as they save time and money while getting the best candidates, students as the job search gets easier and institutions as the student employment rate grows. CollegeCornerStone will be launched across colleges and universities and is projected to generate significant revenue and jobs in years to come. *
