Community Associations
Community involvement is a priority for CoreSolutions and our team. As members of various business networks and volunteer programs, we stay connected with local organizations and the community in which we do business.
TechAlliance is an organization that promotes and empowers London technology companies. They prepare entrepreneurs to launch new ventures and provide education and networking opportunities to accelerate business growth for small-to-medium enterprises among other membership benefits. TechAlliance seeks to have London recognized worldwide as a leading technology community.
Many of our employees are Fanshawe Alumni, with some even teaching part-time at the college. Barney Lawn, CoreSolutions' president and CEO, is the former chair of the Fanshawe College School of Information Technology, College Advisory Committee. The general purpose of the advisory committee is to advise the College concerning the development, maintenance and community acceptance of its programs. The committee is also charged with the assessment of the need for new programs, the formal evaluation of programs including recommendations for revisions, and recommendations regarding the continuation of existing programs.
