From Ottawa to Iqaluit: Nunavut Arctic College opens doors, secures job for AC co-op student
Meet Hmoad Hajali, an upper-level Computer Systems Technician – Networking student at Algonquin College, who is currently completing a co-op work term at Nunavut Arctic College in Iqaluit.
Learners like Hajali build connections through employer engagement opportunities and work with Co‑op Student Advisors in the Algonquin College Co-op & Career Centre to refine their resumes, practice interviews and navigate each stage of the journey.
“Next thing you know, I’m emailing with the Academic Chair at Nunavut Arctic College about completing a co-op term there,” Hajali said.
A leap of faith and a plane ride later, Hajali landed in the foreign-to-him hilly, snow-covered landscape of Iqaluit, Nunavut.
Hajali is leading the classroom in Nunavut Arctic College’s own Computer Systems Technician – Networking program. He teaches fundamental networking, security and system administration. The role also includes leading labs, offering one-on-one support after regular class hours and lesson planning for the following week.
