As Talpiot has expanded, the College has developed close working relationships with a variety of other respected educational institutions within Ontario and across North America.
In attempting to provide our students with the widest educational possibilities and exposure to the most advanced trends in contemporary academia, Talpiot has sought out educational partnerships with a variety of different establishments that have understood our unique perspective on education. The added dimension provided by these institutions has allowed Talpiot to offer programs of study that otherwise would be unavailable to our student body. Over the last number of years, Talpiot has offered a variety of joint programs in conjunction with a number of institutions of higher education. These affiliations have allowed our student body to make use of the advanced facilities and special opportunities afforded by these institutions’ extensive educational experience. Programs in Gerontology, Computer Graphics and Computer Programming have all been jointly developed through such academic partnerships.
As part of Talpiot’s ongoing acceptance within the wider academic community, universities and colleges have accepted numerous Talpiot graduates across North America into post-bachelors and masters programs. To facilitate ease of degree acceptance, Talpiot’s degrees have been reviewed and accredited by World Education Services (WES), one of the leading credential and transcript evaluation services in the United States and a member of the National Association of Credential Evaluation Services (NACES). WES’ credit evaluations – and therefore Talpiot’s degrees – are accepted by close to two thousand universities worldwide.
Another area of academic expansion has been Talpiot’s recent connection with Charter Oak State College (COSC). For students seeking a bachelor’s degree that is more widely known within the United States, Talpiot has successfully guided graduates through the COSC bachelor’s program with a 100% transfer acceptance of Talpiot’s course credits. A student may choose to take their earned Talpiot credits and transfer them towards a Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science degree from COSC.
The quality of a college education depends largely on the capacity of the faculty to inspire and engender intellectual growth. To create an environment that seeks the highest educational standards, Talpiot has assembled a staff of exceptional educators dedicated to both the spiritual growth and guidance of each student, as well as promoting intellectual inspiration to attain premier academic standards. The supreme form of inspiration that a program of study can hope to attain is to make its students understand that they have within them the ability to contribute to – or even more importantly to initiate – endeavours that were once well beyond their imagination.
To successfully achieve such lofty aspirations requires a staff that totally identifies with the goals and educational philosophy that define Talpiot. Furthermore, the faculty’s energetic commitment to elevating the learning environment has provided students with the will to grow and excel through their studies.
