“As an auditor for TAC, I find it very rewarding to have a big impact with the minimal volunteer effort required. I completed post-secondary education in 2006 and currently use those learned skills and knowledge as a professional in the workplace. I feel a sense of pride and accomplishment to evaluate and provide feedback to the institute programs that helped make me who I am today.” Chris Gabrielson, P. Tech (eng) TAC Auditor
