OPSEU and CEC reach agreement

OPSEU, the union that represents Ontario’s college faculty and the College Employer Council (CEC) have reached a tentative agreement and averted a strike at all 24 colleges across the province, including Sheridan. 

All classes, in-person and virtual, will resume, as scheduled, on Friday, March 18 for full- and part-time students. All Sheridan campuses remain open. 

We recognize how challenging this situation has been for our learners, for our faculty, librarians and counsellors in the bargaining unit and our administration and support staff. Our academic staff are second to none and our entire community has the best interests of our learners at heart. While this was a long and challenging negotiation, we strongly believe that our goals are aligned; to provide students with the highest quality academic and learning experience possible. 

While the past several months of bargaining have been difficult, Sheridan is energized and looking forward to focusing on our central vision and purpose: providing a premier education for our learners.
