At the fourth annual Skills Sheridan competition, which took place on March 28 at Sheridan’s Magna Skilled Trades Centre, nearly 30 students were awarded a medal and a cash prize for excelling in their respective fields.
The event puts students’ education and training to the test by requiring them to complete difficult tasks in discipline-specific activities in a short amount of time. In excess of 100 understudies partook in the current year’s release of Abilities Sheridan, which highlighted rivalry in structural innovation and plan; electrical structures; millwrighting for industrial mechanics; IT office programming application; mechatronics; plumbing; machining with precision; web development and design; likewise welding
Skills Sheridan helps instructors select the students who will represent Sheridan at the upcoming Skills Ontario provincial competition, which will be held May 1-2 at the Toronto Congress Centre. Skills Sheridan also honors the best students in each event. Greg Royal, the event’s master of ceremonies and Associate Dean of the Magna School for the Skilled Trades, said, “It’s an honor to celebrate the skill and talent of our Sheridan students.”
In addition, a lot of vendors showed off new equipment and talked to students about career options at the competition.
