Fennell Campus Has anyone found good placements for Co-op if you’re in the business admin-accounting program?

Upvotes

Also I know they said 70% average needed but what if I’ve finished some classes with 70%s, 80%s and around 2 with 60%? Would they still consider me for co-op in semester 2 or would I have to wait for year 2.

Question Strange question about the RPN course.

1 Upvotes

I did not get into this yet as I just got into the pre health course. But my question and it a little strange because I have no been in school for a while. I took night school at McMaster and it all online. Before they had class but not anymore. My question is do I need a good laptop? Why do I even ask this? When I went to night school I had a laptop but I didn’t really do anything much with it. When we had to write a paper I just use my desktop. When I have to read books I just read it from my big screen TV that connects to my desktop. I’m asking this question because I don’t know if I used invest in something like a Mac book air or just a budget laptop. I’m also thinks maybe a 2 in 1 like a laptop that can turn into a touch pad with a pen. There one on sale at Best Buy. Any help would be appreciated. I guess I can always talk to my coworkers that already doing this but she never here as she in school and only works when their a break in class.

Discussions Practical Nursing vs PSW To PN Bridge

2 Upvotes

Just wondering for those that have been accepted to one or both of these courses. What was your deciding factors on the one you decided on? There is no time saved in taking the bridge. Both run 16 months long, 4 semesters. First semester of the bridge is extremely math and science heavy, preparing you for entery into the PN program. Where it’s a little more spread in PN program. Any insights help as I prepare to take one or the other.

Discussions Update: Gavel beta is open — addressed a lot of the licensing/liability concerns from last time

3 Upvotes

Hey again, a days weeks ago I posted here asking if Mohawk students would actually use Gavel, and got a lot of genuinely useful pushback, especially around licensing and liability for trades work. Wanted to follow up properly instead of just replying in the comments, since a few of you raised real problems.

What changed based on that feedback:

  • Electrical, HVAC, and pest control are no longer open categories on the platform, period. No unlicensed offers on that kind of work until real license verification exists.
  • Plumbing is folded into general handyman work (leaky faucet, not gas lines or anything code-regulated).
  • Payment doesn't move until the customer confirms in person that the job is actually done, providers aren't getting paid on a promise, and cancellations/no-shows hit a reputation record that restricts platform access.
  • You can now report or block anyone directly from their profile, not just buried in chat settings.

Beta's actually open now if anyone wants to try it instead of just reading about it:

I want this platform to be catered to the Mohawk College students!

We'd appreciate the same kind of blunt feedback as last time, what's broken, what's missing, what would actually stop you from using it for real.

I was wondering, what is the acceptance rate for the medical radiation sciences (729) at Mohawk-McMaster. Also, what’s the schooling like and postgrad if anyone just graduated. I’m wondering if overall this is a good program since it is one of the few accredited programs in the GTA.

Question Would Mohawk students actually use this instead of a part-time job?

4 Upvotes

A lot of Mohawk students have valuable skills, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, welding, automotive, carpentry, landscaping, painting, and plenty more, but most part-time jobs still pay the same as retail and don't make use of those skills.

We're building Gavel, a marketplace where people in Hamilton can post small jobs they need done, and students can choose the jobs they want, set their own prices, and work whenever it fits around classes or placements.

Before we launch, we'd really like to hear from Mohawk students.

  • Would you actually use something like this to make extra money?
  • What would make you trust using the platform?
  • Is there anything that would stop you from signing up?

We're looking for honest feedback, even if it's critical. We'd rather fix problems now than after launch.

If you're interested, you can check it out here and join our waitlist:
