Business

I absolutely loved Herzing College, would definitely recommend! My sister is 12 years old and wants to come to Herzing! Helped me start my career working full-time for the company I did my stage with and I couldn’t be happier. I use everything I learnt not only at my job but I can use it for my any company.
Business Administration
Herzing College Montreal -
I wanted to have an experience outside my field of study that also opened up more opportunities in the workforce. Business is one of the greatest courses because it helps you to be more customer-orientated, it forces you to keep up with the current market and lastly, one must be a team player in order to complete the course successfully.

According to Alvin Toffler, author of Future Shock,
“The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write,
but those who cannot learn, unlearn and relearn.”The above may aptly describe my assessment of this citadel of learning which is quietly located at the basement of St. Laurent Shopping Mall in Ottawa. A rather uncommon college, with a number of courses designed, packaged and taught to prepare the willing mind for the challenges of the labor market, especially for newcomers who have chosen to make Canada their new home.
From the positive-minded admissions director to the young-at-heart front desk officer, saturated by the unassuming yet very skilled faculty members, embraced by the very humble leadership of the school represented by the Dean and the President, a new student would immediately feel a sense of belonging and a desire to prove Alvin Toffler’s concept of learning in Herzing College! Amazingly, I have read a few reviews about the school which tend to discourage anyone who is not curious enough to know that the taste of the pudding is in the eating.
I chose to take up a diploma training in business management, despite having bagged several diplomas and higher degrees in reputable institutions across various parts of the globe. My experience and submission are simply that there is always something new to learn – and this platform is well enhanced in Herzing College, Ottawa. On the whole, I am proud to have been part of this institution which definitely ranks among the top ten colleges in Ontario province of Canada.
Business Management
Herzing College Ottawa -
I am originally from the Philippines. At the age of 17, I graduated from high school. After high school, I decided to be a working student, I enjoyed my life being a working student. I graduated at the age of 21 with an Associate’s Degree in Computer Science. From there I was eager to have a stable job. My family and I decided that I should try my luck here in Canada. So, I went here in Canada as a Nanny, after 4 years from that field I decided to upgrade my knowledge. I decided to enroll, go back to school and that time Herzing College is my first choice, but it is more convenient for me. I took Business Management because I love doing Payroll, but I’m not really sure if I will overcome my fear in numbers.
After a year in Herzing College, I graduated and achieved my career goals. Herzing College provided me with necessary skills set to meet the challenges in a competitive job market. I am grateful to Herzing for making my future a better one.

It was an honor to study at Herzing College Ottawa. I never expected that I will go back to school after 25 years of being out of school. It was never too late to have gained new knowledge and experience with the new technology. By entering Herzing College, not only that I gained knowledge, but I also gained friendships through my classmates and professors. I got a job after graduating at Herzing College at the Company where I took my Internship. Thank you, Herzing College, for providing us such a great experience. Hope you will continue to help the new generation.

My favorite part of the program is the freedom we are given to explore my creativity. Each lesson comes with its own set of guidelines and boundaries; however we are encouraged to express ourselves as long as the criteria is met. Gabriel Choquette, the 2D Animation Professor, is friendly and has a professional demeanor. I have not been discouraged from exploring my ideas or the limits of the software. Gabe, as we call him, only intervenes when I or another student starts getting ahead of ourselves in a fashion which may jeopardize meeting our deadlines.
I have also noticed that the staff at the college have a good sense of humor, and a willingness to convey a healthy learning environment. The sound of laughter is pouring out of nearby classrooms
2D Animation
Herzing College Ottawa -
In the short few months I’ve been in the (2D Animation) course, I’ve felt tremendous growth as an artist. The classes are engaging, challenging, and I’m always excited to see what comes next. This course is going to help me turn my passion into a career, and I would recommend it to any fellow artist who is even slightly curious about the world of animation.

A few days before I turned 29, I made an appointment that would change my life in ways I could never imagine. Walking through the doors to Herzing College I was filled with “fight or flight” mixed with a unique blend of self-doubt. It had been 11 long years since I’d been in school, and the memories of school weren’t exactly my go to happy place; however, sitting down to speak with Kevin McAllister my fears were all slowly brushed away and replaced by something new, excitement. Before my self-doubt could talk me out of it, I signed the papers and officially registered as a student of the Community Service Worker program. Not a single day has gone by where I regret that decision. The classes are small which makes the experience personal. The instructors know your name, they know your story, and they get to know who YOU are. The staff are friendly, and it feels more like family than a learning institution. I’ve become a better person and have regained the confidence I’d thought was gone for good.
Herzing along with my instructor Bryan Coker has reignited my passion for learning. I wake up in the morning eager to find out what’s next. Herzing has changed my life, and saved me in a lot of ways, for that I am eternally grateful; however, perhaps even more. I am grateful for the Community Service Worker Program and its amazing instructor. This is how learning should be. This is how community should be. Your future is waiting, it might be scary, and you may have doubt, but always remember you are capable of more than you think, so take a breath, make that appointment and in the immortal words of Bryan Coker, set out on your new journey whispering, “Just watch me…”

My time at Herzing College has been an amazing experience and given me memories I will never forget. The support provided by the staff at Herzing has helped me grow stronger and more confident as a person and given me the skills I need to have a successful career in Medical Administration. The real-world experience that the teachers share with the students in relation to the course materials help to give a more robust understanding of the career path I have chosen. The courses at Herzing are geared toward making sure I have the most up to date knowledge of the programs I will encounter in my field and the aptitude to perform my best. I am very glad that I have chosen Herzing College to help me with my career and I will always be grateful for my time at Herzing College.

My experience at Herzing College in the Community Services Worker program prepared me fully for work in the field. What makes this college special is the staff, from the administrative staff to the instructor. This instructor motivated me to learn and provided a learning environment that was full of fun. I found all members of the staff were approachable and extremely responsive to student needs. The course material was very comprehensive. I would strongly recommend this school to anyone.

Herzing College Ottawa -
What an honour and thank you for allowing me to write and post my comments. First, I have always loved education. I believe there is nothing more important than knowledge. As a mother of two wonderful children, I want them to know that anything is possible. I am living proof. Deciding to go back to school was a huge step for me. I weighed my options and found Herzing College to be the perfect choice. The array of courses is perfect for anyone wanting a second career. The staff are knowledgeable, friendly, and kind. The students are hard-working, and I have become friends with quite a few of them. If ever anyone decides to further their education, I highly recommend Herzing College as not only their first choice, but the best choice. Thank-you Herzing!

I have really enjoyed my time at Herzing! The faculty really takes time to know the students and are always willing to listen and help in any way that they can. They care about our education and what we do after we leave. They prepare the students for more than just the time we spend in out studies, ensuring that we have tools and knowledge to be successful in the work place. Teachers are professional and knowledgeable. I got a great internship in the field that I was interested in and was offered a job right after my studies were over. I have never thought twice about my decision to go to Herzing!

Just want to say thinks to everyone for their support, the finance department who is always ready and willing to provide assistance, admins for making sure everything is in place, the instructor who makes sure you understand what’s going on. It was a wonderful experience thanks to the Herzing College family.

My experience with Herzing College has been great. The staff were very helpful with my needs. Some programs make it difficult to be accepted, not Herzing. After I had completed my internship I was offered a job. I am thrilled and anxious to get to work in a anew and different environment. Time well spent.

I previously attended Conestoga College for Business Administration. While at Conestoga I realized that this was not what I wanted to do because of my busy life with work. Thankfully I found Herzing College and decided what I want to do – HVAC and gas fitting, like my uncle does. I think it was the best decision of my life because I love working with my hands and talking to people who have similar interests as me. It’s not online and it’s the first time ever I have attended a campus. I’m really loving it here and have a real passion for helping people with their home comfort and HVAC systems.
