The sessions helped strengthen institutional readiness and prepare partners for the launch of the Agriculture Centre of Excellence in January 2027, the first of the CoEs to be established.<\/p>\n<p>Bringing extensive experience in TVET development across the Caribbean, the PICT team included Oleksandra Gora, NC&#8217;s Global Education Projects, Project Manager; Joyce Bott, NC&#8217;s Curriculum Design Expert; Paul Manning, Dalhousie University Faculty of Agriculture, Integrated Pest Management Expert; and Cush Lewis, Monitoring &amp; Evaluation Expert.<\/p>\n<p>The workshops brought together representatives from Government of Grenada agencies, Grenada&#8217;s Skills Development Unit (SDU) within the Ministry of Education, and Agriculture instructors.<\/p>\n<p>The sessions focused on strengthening collaboration and building institutional capacity.

designed and built by NC Game Development students &#8211; at its twentieth anniversary open house event.<\/p>\n<p>The project has been about a year in the making. NC School of Media faculty Conor MacNeil &#8211; who is also a member of Willowbank&#8217;s Board of Directors. &#8211; led student volunteers from the College&#8217;s Game Development programs in the project. They worked with Willowbank students to reimagine the historic estate on a digital platform. Drawing on photographs, floor plans, archival research and conversations with community members, they created an experience that offers an immersive glimpse into Willowbank&#8217;s past.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s the future meeting the past. Heritage students\u00a0 and gaming students work in very different spaces, but this project shows the incredible applications virtual reality has for cultural preservation,&#8221; aid MacNeil. &#8220;When people put the headset on, they aren&#8217;t just looking at a 3D model, they&#8217;re stepping into an authentic, photorealistic environment that honours Willowbank&#8217;s history while showcasing our students&#8217; technical skills at an industry level.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Over the past year, third-year Game Development student Ronnie Warwick worked alongside MacNeil and about a dozen students across NC&#8217;s Game Development programs, to transform the historic mansion into an interactive digital environment. Warwick, who was born and raised in St. Catharines, was interested in getting involved with the project to gain hands-experience.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I was really excited to get some industry experience &#8211; to get a sense of what it&#8217;s like to work on a game, with a team, with a client, and get a chance to show off my skills,&#8221; said Warwick.<\/p>\n<p>Using Unreal Engine &#8211; industry-leading software that expands beyond the standard classroom curriculum &#8211; the team used 3D spatial scanning, drone capture, high-to-low poly baking, and archival research from the Niagara-on-the-Lake Museum.<\/p>\n<p>Warwick handled much of the initial reference work and developed the 3D model from the original floor plans before moving to programming the VR mechanics, headset setup, and audio integration in Unreal.<\/p>\n<p>He \u00a0valued the experience he gained contributing to the architecture of the project, from details such as trims and doors to the entire staircase design which took significant effort.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Conor made this feel like an industry production. We had a client, we had a goal, we had milestones to achieve, we had roles and responsibilities,&#8221; said Warwick. &#8220;Working on real-world goals with real-world clients gave me a sense of accomplishment and a drive to work and prove what our team could do.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>With the recent loss of other historic estates such as the Glencairn House, Warwick reflected on the importance of preserving history in 3D and how he could use his skills to do just that.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;One of the coolest things about this project is we&#8217;re preserving history in 3D,&#8221; he said. &#8220;The idea of preserving Willowbank and many other historic houses in 3De has led to a lot of new ideas and plans for the future&#8230; our 200-year old pieces of history need to be preserved and our team is working to preserve them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In addition to walking through intricately detailed rooms, users can discover virtual period artifacts and view digitized letters dating back to the 1860s that were once hidden within the walls of the estate.<\/p>\n<p>The long-term vision for the project is a digital &#8216;time machine&#8217; for users to toggle between the estate&#8217;s distinct architectural eras, from the Hamilton family in the mid-1800s, to the Bright family in expansions of the 1930s.<\/p>\n<p>The open house showcase marks the public debut of phase one, bringing the estate to life in immersive 3D.<\/p>\n<p>The VR experience will be a key feature of Willowbank&#8217;s 20<sup>th<\/sup> anniversary open house on Saturday, September 20. MacNeil, Warwick and other NC student creators will be on site to guide visitors through the headset walkthrough. the demo will be running throughout the afternoon of the open house inside the Hamilton Room.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top:
