When Cindy started her place- ment, she did not know a lot of things, for example: she did not know that Realty means more than just selling houses, it means to sell or rent any immovable property. She also learned that buying a house is a very big step in someone's life. There are a lot of different regions that Belluz Realty sells and rents houses to. The head office is located in Thunder Bay and serves most of the North Shore. Cindy's other tasks are to keep the front window display board up to date. When a house from the display is sold, it is stamped with a red sold stamper. Another thing that she learned is there are a lot of deadlines to meet, such as the Belluz Realty column in the Terrace Bay/Schreiber News. Every thing that is done in the Belluz Realty office is strictly confidential and cannot be revealed. Cindy, who is now finished her co-op, said she _ really enjoyed her placement and was never bored while she sat in her own office typing and organizing the various items given to her.

He also took a CPR training course. Whatever is done in the Station is strictly confidential and is kept within the walls of the sta- tion. Along with patrol observa- tions, and office observations, Claudio has watched many train- ing films that cover a minor acci- dent to gun fire and what to do with a corpse. He has also watched a film on the perfor- mance of an autopsy. Claudio has learned many codes through visual observation.
