Collaborating with Durham College's Project Management educators on the "Organization Structure Configuration for Growth" project was an enriching experience. Their expertise and practical insights significantly enhanced our project's quality, providing a seamless blend of theory and real-world application. We're grateful for their support and look forward to future collaborations.

Linda is very organized and communicates very well. She has a great program and does a great job organizing her students and helping them to achieve a great outcome.

The team was committed to learning about the company and the pain points we need to address. Their final report gave us some suggested solutions and actionable steps for the future. Thank you.

Professor Smith was a delight to coordinate with, through simple & clear communication arranging the logistics of our project was a speedy process.

This was my company’s first executed project through the Riipen platform matching system and I must say this has been overall a great experience for me. Working with the instructors and student team from Durham College Project Management Postgraduate Certificate Program has been a great partnership towards fulfilling both of our goals. I would definitely recommend them for any company seeking to leverage the expertise of students towards aspects of project management. Thank you. Tolu Adeleye, PhD CEO, Wholesome Career Living Inc.

Wasn't a good experience.

This was a great experience to work with.

We had the incredible opportunity to work with Mamta Sharma on the foundation's stand handbook. I felt like we didn't have enough time to finalize all of the details, but overall she did a good job.

Efficient process to connect with students and helpful work was completed that will contribute to our company's growth!

This 4-week placement provided Play Forever with many benefits which helped the overall function of our organization

It was a pleasure to work with your students and with you. The students were diligent and accepted feedback well. They accommodated requests and truly tried to do the best for their client. Inform Your Community is well-equipped for our gala and auction because of the project management work of this wonderful team. We now have lots of tools to work with not only for this upcoming event but also for all future gala and auction events thereafter.

We loved our experience with Durham College. It was fantastic. The students were excellent. Diligent, determined, and detail oriented. The professor was great to work with!

Everyone in our company works remotely. We needed a way to build a shared vision of our company and its culture, promote equity, diversity and inclusion, and give our team members the tools and information they need to enjoy their work and feel productive and engaged on a daily basis, and over time. As part of their practicum, the Durham students worked closely with us to design and document processes, procedures, and tools, to help us improve the hiring and recruitment process, daily work experience of new and current team members, and improve our internal communication and organization. They helped us understand how to define and communicate remote working standards and habits, how to use and get help with the various tools and processes we follow for time-tracking, project management, reporting, what kind of meeting standards were needed, how to track holidays and leave requests, and so much more. At the same time they firmly grounded their recommendations in Ontario and Canadian employment law. The Durham students demonstrated enthusiasm, research skills, creativity and insight throughout the practicum. The work they produced has already been put to use and will be of continued great value to us as we build our team. They were a real asset to our company, always professional and pleasant to work with, reliable, trustworthy, and fit in very well with our team. Highly recommended!

Our intern was absolutely amazing. Took on more than I thought she could handle and delivered the project ahead of time and asked for more! The supervisor provided good structure and milestones. Everything went smoothly.

Thanks for the project to assist us with promoting our new Student Affiliate Program - well done!

The team did a nice job of summarizing the issues/opportunities with the project. One area that we were looking to compete was a market research study around pricing. The group was unable to get that information, but the balance of the work was well laid out with recommendations.

Initial introduction and all communications with Pauline Bessada was professional, clear and timely. Our only disappointment was with the project team. They fell far short of even the minimal expectations we had for working with them to provide input on our business expansion plans.
