George Brown Polytechnic is located on the traditional territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and other Indigenous peoples who have lived here over time. We are grateful to share this land as treaty people who learn, work and live in the community with each other.
Opportunities in health and wellness are growing quickly as health care thinking shifts from disease management to prevention or promotion. There is a big focus today on quality of life – whether through exercise, nutrition or in areas like assistive devices that help remove barriers to independence. As the population ages, the need for skilled workers in the health and wellness sector increases making it an exciting time to build a career in this industry.
