Member Testimonials
“It has been an absolute pleasure to sit on the EWO Awards and Recognition committee over the past four years and to have been able to serve as a co-chair for this committee over the past two years. This experience has provided me with so many incredible opportunities, from building collaborative relationships with partners from across various institutions, to developing further leadership skills, and most importantly, to recognizing and honouring incredible students who have contributed to our communities. I would highly encourage anyone considering joining a committee to explore opportunities with EWO.”
Lauren Broderick
As the Co-Chair/Chair of the Awards and Recognition Committee from 2017-2019 Ashley enjoyed connecting with colleagues from all over the province and celebrating the success of our Co-op and WIL students. Ashley also regularly participates in EWO annual conferences and webinars to stay current on trends and to connect with colleagues. “I am truly grateful for the opportunities that EWO provides to connect with and learn from professionals within the EL/WIL space”.
