“It took a back injury to nudge him out of the construction industry and into the executive business administration program at Willis College during the pandemic. Lucas started the bedding store in November 2021 and is already doing better than breakeven.”

We absolutely love to see our graduates popping up in the business world, and sometimes in the news!

Tim Lucas took a big leap during the COVID-19 pandemic, shifting careers and starting Kemptville Bedding Outlet, a burgeoning local bedding store with a new location in the Kemptville Mall. He’s focusing on carrying as many local and made-in-Canada products as he can and going head-to-head with the big retailers (and he’s already extremely successful).

And it’s no wonder. Tim is a graduate of our Executive Business Administration Program, a comprehensive program that teaches administration, marketing, human resources, and accounting. Graduates leave ready to take on the world. They may start a job with an existing business, or like Tim, start their own!

All the best luck in the world Tim!
