The Look of Film**

The overall look of a film or a television show is carefully designed to

sweaters bluer, etc. Production design includes the design and creation 

of sets, finding locations, establishing the color scheme or palette of 

a film, and supervising the costumes, hairstyles, and makeup. One of 

Canada’s foremost Production Designers, James McAteer, (Good Will 

Hunting, A History of Violence) explains the visual style of film that will

Finance and Accounting 

Accounting, the financial information system of an organization, 

serves to summarize many of the organization’s plans and the results 

of its operations. Many human resources management decisions are 

important inputs into those plans and results. It is therefore necessary 

for human resources managers to understand the measurement bases 

and reporting methodology used in accounting. In addition, they require 

an understanding of basic accounting principles and techniques, 

because the management of the human resources function itself has an 

accounting dimension.

Professionals Association (HRPA) as a credit in the Canadian Council

Finance – Leadership Development 

Leaders in any organization need to understand the cost of doing 

business. Financial documents are used to explain how money is 

used in a business and can be interpreted to predict an organization’s 

success. The ethical and effective use of financial statements and 

ratio calculations for forecasting and budget preparation can ensure 

investments or withdrawals within an organization will produce a healthy 

return or mitigate decline in other areas. Knowing the processes for 

assessing ROI, creating a budget and anticipating variances are critical 

in any organization in order to make effective decisions.

understanding and sequential application of ecosystem management 

practices. 

Forest Measurement 

This course deals with specific measurements and assessment methods 

for forests. The course involves laboratory sessions and field trips. 

Measurement of tree height, tree diameter, basal area, land area, and 

tree volume is studied. The Canadian Fire Weather Index system is 

introduced. Fixed area sampling, point sampling, tree marking, and fuel 

loading are field trip topics. 

Soil Studies I

This course is an introduction to a range of skills in wildlife observation. 

A variety of wildlife species may be present in an environment despite 

not being seen. Important skills include visual and auditory identification 

of wildlife signs. The primary emphasis in this course will be on 

identification of wildlife signs such as tracks, trail patterns, scat, skulls, 

impacts on the environment, bird song and amphibian calls. Whenever 

possible it is important to achieve visual observation and documentation 

of wildlife. Photography will be examined as a tool to document wildlife 

and their signs. Studies of wildlife observation technology will include 

an evaluation of binoculars and spotting scopes. Wildlife observation 

projects and groups will be reviewed including the Christmas Bird Count 

and breeding bird surveys. Lab instruction will be augmented with field 

trips to observe signs of local wildlife and when possible to document 

actual wildlife sightings. 

Field Placement – Field Skills 

This 80-hour (2 week) course will take place during August. The student 

will be engaged in a Field Placement for an organization whose primary

Introduction to Onsite Wastewater Systems 

Onsite wastewater system inspectors often deal with systems with little 

or no information available, and systems that are not easily accessed 

from the ground surface. This course introduces participants to the most 

commonly used methods to locate, expose and test components of an 

onsite system including tanks treatment systems chambers, gravity-fed 

fields, and pressure distribution mounds. Inspection knowledge reduces 

the risk of missing critical items that can become serious problems. 

Upon successful completion of this course, participants receive a credit 

with COWI’s Onsite Wastewater Professional Tech (OWPTech) Program.

HAVE YOU MOVED? 

Please make sure to notify the Registrar’s Office when you change your 

mailing address. Returned mail will be retained for two months, after which 

time the information will be destroyed. There will be a charge for re-issuing 

documents. Also note that the College cannot be responsible for information 

lost in the mail. 

NAME CHANGE 

Please note that appropriate documentation is required for any name change 

on student files. 

PRIOR LEARNING ASSESSMENT AND RECOGNITION 

Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition (PLAR) is based on the premise 

that many adults acquire skills and knowledge through work experience; 

community, home and volunteer activities; training programs; non-college 

and independent study and travel and leisure activities. The PLAR system 

evaluates this learning and relates it to formal courses and programs at 

educational institutions. Using PLAR, adult candidates who can demonstrate 

or document that they have achieved the learning outcomes of a given 

course, may be given formal college credit. It may save you time and money 

to examine whether or not you would qualify for such credit. For further 

information, contact the Registrar’s Office at 705-749-5530 x1131.

REFUNDS 

Fees paid by Credit Card will be refunded to the same credit card. Cheques 

will be issued for any other method of payment you have made and sent to 

the address that we have on file for you. Processing refunds will take 4-6 

weeks. If you do not receive your refund within 4-6 weeks after withdrawing 

from the college please contact the Cashiers office at ext 1796. 

SERVICE CHARGE 

There is a $25.00 service fee on NSF cheques and on declined credit cards.
