I am so thankful I had this opportu- nity through the assistance of Native Affairs and Ontario Hydro to be a graduating student of the Social Service Worker program. I will probably always be returning for more education and community work. It makes living in the Sarnia- Lambton area one of the best communities for education and training for a new career. Nina Antoine Ogilire Social Service Worker Here's what our students say... A school where I felt welcome, mainly due to being a smaller school. I looked at my previous grade reports from another college versus Lambton College and I noticed that my grades went up by approximately 2 grades. The instructors were easy to approach. The school itself was well maintained.Very clean, bright and open. Connie Slegers Office Admin.
