adult training The training programmes offered through Adult Training provide academic upgrading and skill development. There are two methods of registering in this division. The first is by being sponsored through the local office of Manpower under the terms of the Occupational Training Act. The second method is to be a fee-paying student. These programmes may appeal to some high school graduates who are not otherwise interested in College or University. 6

applied arts The Applied Arts Division teaches practical and creative skills in graphics, interior design, journalism, public relations and sports and entertainment administration. Emphasis is on application of classroom content through field trips, a leadership camp, great speakers, and a laboratory approach wherever possible. The second year of some programs require students to work two days a week for an agency in their field of study. Through the emphasis on applied skill, and by working in partnership with their instructors in an informal atmosphere, students are challenged to develop maturity, independence, and good work habits.
