Our third recommendation concerns the students, who are the lifeblood of Quebec colleges. If they lived in other provinces, perhaps they would be attending a university. The systems are somewhat different.
Many are very interested, available and curious. They want to develop what UNESCO refers to as their critical thinking and analytical skills. That is what businesses need. They need people to work on site and to do research for them or people who will create new leading edge companies. Research is interesting work and students like it. We would like businesses to have the means to hire even more students for their research projects, and those resources would make it possible to better develop tomorrow's talent.
