How Sheridan is keeping you safe on campus
As we have throughout the pandemic, we continue to focus on our shared responsibility to maintain the health and safety of our community. We work in partnership with our local and provincial public health partners to determine the extent to which our on-campus health and safety measures will remain.
Cleaning & disinfection:We clean and disinfect frequently touched areas in common spaces at least twice daily and disinfect all of Sheridan’s public spaces once daily. In labs, studios, workshops, and offices, Sheridan community members are encouraged to clean equipment, materials, and workstations before and after use. Medical masks, cleaning wipes, and hand sanitizers are available for students and employees to use at designated locations throughout campus.
Physical distancing in common spaces and offices
We ask that students and employees continue to be respectful of individual preferences for keeping more distance in line-ups, classrooms and offices. Students and employees are still required to have their onecardwith them at all times when on campus.
Masks and PPE:Sheridan no longer requires individuals coming on campus to wear a mask. However, we remain a mask-friendly community, and encourage everyone who comes to campus to wear a tight-fitting mask if they feel it is the right choice for them. Medical masks are available on campus at designated locations.
Monitoring positive cases and outbreaks:In alignment with public health processes, Sheridan will provide specific information about your COVID-19 situation based on the information shared with us.
