Easter Day: May your Easter be egg-cellent! by Marine Gas

This April at ILAC International College, students from the Service Excellence for Business program celebrated Easter with a Bunny surprise. “It is a really good idea, it makes my Easter happier. I feel more at home”, confessed Julia from Brazil, her hands full of chocolate. She received the treats from ILAC International College. Kristina and Laura, the college’s Student Services representatives in charge of making students happy, distributed some delicious candy and chocolate carefully wrapped in a bunny shaped paper.

Field Trip: Be the actor of your career! by Marine Gas

This March, the Event Planning and Food and Beverage classes of the Service Excellence for Business program went on a Field Trip to TIFF Bell Lightbox.

A British pub in Canada invaded by international students. How cosmopolitan it is! Farewell could sound like a sad occasion, [...]

In March, our class of Event Planning in Toronto held an Appreciation Dinner with the help of Ruby Sohi, instructor at ILAC International College. Planning, preparing, and hosting the dinner was part of our class assignment. Believe it or not, it was the best assignment ever! Room 401 at the ILAC International College turned into a reception place for one evening. Saint Patrick’s Day was the theme. All of the decoration was made around this Irish culture. Glasses, cutlery, and napkins were green. Little gold shamrocks, the plant symbol of Ireland, were spread on the centre of the table. Even the [...]
