Operating from two campuses in Mississauga, THINNOX caters to two different education needs of K-12 students aspiring high achieving careers in Technology, Education and Design (TED). The Glen Erin Campus offers part-time (TED) enrichment programs, whereas the Lakeshore Campus offers full-time as well as part-time TED Immersion High School programs in private and semi-private delivery formats. Both campuses offer programs round the year including Summer Camps and Summer School.
THINNOX campuses are carefully designed to ensure a friendly, student-centred, engaging atmosphere geared to small set of students. Class sizes range from 6 to 10 students. Small class sizes allow our instructors and counsellors to personally mentor every student and tailor the programming to specific requirements and interests of the student. The course offerings within a program is broad and delivery formats are as diverse as needs. The combination of personalized programming along with involved mentorship and keen career focus help our students achieve much more than what they think is possible.
