The Student Experience Team hosts transition events such as Welcome Days and New Student Orientation to help new students start their Fleming journey with confidence. Peer Mentorship at Fleming College involves Fleming student volunteers (mentors) who offer new students (mentees) support and guidance designed to cultivate their personal and academic success.
