I never pictured myself in Special Event Planning. I read about Centennial College’s Special Event Planning program which was still relatively new at the time. I decided to take the leap, and I was not disappointed. Because the program is still new, I found there were a lot of professors interested in our feedback. My professors were extremely supportive and made me feel like I was more than a student number. After my two years at Centennial College, I was immediately hired into my industry via my co-op position. I was so grateful to have had the experience I did. My co-op position allowed me to expand my resume and opened doors in the professional industry that I never thought would be open to me. — Dana Paglia, Special Event Planning, Graduate
