Grand Falls - Windsor Campus

My name is Rob Hillier, and I am your Student Development Officer (SDO) at College of the North Atlantic’s (CNA) Grand Falls-Windsor campus.

Grand Falls-Windsor campus has a lot to offer students with diverse educational interests – from one, two and three-year diploma and certificate programs to personal interest courses. Our campus is focused on ensuring the learner is at the centre of the learning process. Our human and program resources are aimed at helping students reach their personal and educational goals. A key element of this includes 21 credit transfer agreements with universities throughout Canada and the United States.

There are numerous services and resources available at our campus to enhance student life, including a Guidance Counsellor, an SDO, Student Services office, an extensive library, an active student council, an Enactus chapter, and a full-service cafeteria. Generally, I provide students with out-of-the-classroom type services and act as a liaison between students, faculty, staff and administration.

Some of my duties include:

• Planning and facilitating orientation activities in conjunction with other college staff;
• Student council – I act as a liaison between the council and staff and lend support/advise
• Peer tutoring – I assist with matching tutors and relevant students. It is free for students requiring tutoring, while the tutors get paid by the campus (maximum of 15 hours per relationship). 
• Student Aid information and loan status
• Planning our graduation
• Scholarships and awards
• Coordinating visitation by many external community and regional groups
• Recruitment – inquiries at campus, high schools, community groups, etc.
• Delegation of campus lockers
