Overview

College Diploma - Border Services

The Border Services program provides foundational knowledge and experiential hands on-learning to individuals who aspire to work as border services officers.

During the first year, a broad theoretical foundation is provided on human relations, mental health, critical interpersonal, communication, and team-building skills, and an overview of the criminal justice system

The second year focuses on courses specific to determining the admissibility of persons, goods, and conveyances into Canada, legislation, documentation, and technology required to move goods and people across the border. 

In addition, students will acquire important communication skills, dispute resolution, and critical thinking skills required as Canada's first line of defense.

Students also achieve certification in Nonviolent Crisis Intervention training from the Crisis Prevention Institute and Introduction to Incident Management System (IMS-100) from Emergency Management Ontario

The criminal justice lab offers students the opportunity to bridge the gap between theory and practice in an innovative real-world setting

Students also gain volunteer hours and field-related experience through participation in Lambton College's student-run Safe Walk program

Specialized courses within the program have an interdisciplinary focus and allow students from various first responder courses to learn together in the classroom and in scenarios. 

These experiential learning opportunities, coupled with small class sizes, ensure students receive a quality educational experience.
