Diploma and advanced diploma graduates from Fleming can continue their education at Seneca in business, child development, marketing, mental health, crime analysis, therapeutic recreation, data sciences and interdisciplinary studies.

Students pursuing Seneca degrees benefit from programs connected to industry and include work-integrated learning opportunities that prepare graduates to excel in their fields. This includes frontline experience in areas of local need such as childhood development and mental health.

“The omnibus agreement provides an opportunity for nearly all of our students to stretch their Fleming diploma further and enhance the value of their credentials even more,” said Maureen Adamson, Fleming College president. “The new pathways significantly build on our already strong partnership with Seneca and lay the foundation for further collaboration.”

The goals of the newly-established agreement which went into effect Mar. 1, 2021 are to create opportunities that recognize the value of a student’s previous education and provide seamless, accessible and innovative options to further their post-secondary education.

“We are delighted to further our partnership with Fleming and add these new academic pathways within the Ontario college system,” said David Agnew, Seneca president. “Fleming graduates who build on their credentials at Seneca will find flexible program delivery and practical learning experiences that will give them the skills and experience to contribute to Canada’s post-pandemic recovery.”
