I especially enjoyed our capstone project where we participated in CMHA PEI's Modular Housing project to increase the amount of affordable housing on PEI. The project team opened their doors to us and allowed us to really take part in this project management experience and see how modular housing projects can not only be completed quickly, but also effectively, while working as a respectful high-functioning team.
