Raegan: Hi Gurwinder, could you tell me your story of coming to CNC?

Gurwinder: So, I got a post-grad in India for Masters in Commerce, then I decided to continue my education in India. A friend recommended CNC to me, and it matched the field I wanted to go into. I am now in my second year at CNC, I’ll be done in the year 2020, I am excited for convocation.

Raegan: What program are you in?

Gurwinder: I am in post-diploma human resources. As an immigrant, this program has helped me learn a lot about employment laws and how to take care of workplace issues.

Raegan: That is important.

Gurwinder: Yeah.

Raegan: So, what do you like about CNC?

Gurwinder: Everything! I had helpful instructors who made my first semester comfortable. I met with Miley and became a volunteer in the International Department. I also am the Administrator Secretary of the CNC HR Club.

Raegan: Wow! Good for you. And what do you like about Prince George?

Gurwinder: I love Prince George. The people are disciplined and patient. I also have good coworkers who comfort me when I am missing my family. PG also has a really good environment, I like the smaller city, it is peaceful and I learn new things every day.

Raegan: If you had to leave one message with the students, what would it be?

Gurwinder: Do your best, do hardwork, and be kind to everyone. You don’t know what’s going on in other people’s lives.

Damon: Finally, what’s your favourite colour?

Gurwinder: *laughs* Purple.
