Whitby Campus - Durham College

http://www.durhamcollege.ca The Whitby campus, home to the Skills Training Centre, currently offers more than 200,000-sq.-ft. of shop, class and student services space on 29 acres of land. Durham College is the only college in Ontario to offer an Elevating Devices Mechanic apprenticeship program, which utilizes an operating elevator and an escalator in the delivery of in-school training. Boom and crawler cranes are used in the delivery of simulated and practical crane training to apprentices as part of the Hoisting Engineer: Mobile Crane Operator program. All classrooms utilize state-of-the-art SmartBoard technology. In 2009, Phase 1 of the college's three-phase expansion officially opened. It includes a second-storey addition that houses new classrooms and labs, a research incubation centre and living lab environments in areas including solar water heating, solar cell systems, wind turbines and geothermal technology systems. Phase 2 of the expansion opened in 2011 and saw the addition of 35,000 square feet to campus. Of that, approximately 20,000 is being used for an expanded shop area for additional students and programs focused on green building trades and technology. Phase 2 also houses new energy labs, classrooms and boardrooms; new Student Association space; a renovated reception area at the front of campus and two new residential labs to give students a sense of the many changes happening in the construction and building trades. Phase 3 will be the creation of a $12-million, 30,000-square-foot building focused on hospitality and tourism that will be located at the west side of the Whitby campus. The building will be able to accommodate approximately 950 students, provide a full-service restaurant and lounge and offer meeting space for students studying culinary arts, food sciences, safety, design and other tourism-related topics.
