Breaking new ground in education as part of The Samsung Tech Institute initiative
Samsung Electronics Canada has extended its partnership with Centennial College’s Electronics Engineering Technician program through 2023. Over the last five years, Samsung has supported more than 275 Centennial students to develop the skills needed to pursue a wide range of opportunities in electronics engineering for digital appliances, with a number of program graduates now working at Samsung Service Centres across the province.
