There are no plans for close the CNC campus in Quesnel.
That confirmation comes from CNC President Cindy Heitman in light of the wake of the recent vote to close the Williams Lake campus operated by Thompson Rivers University.
Heitman says in an email response, “we’re very encouraged to see steady enrollment growth at our Quesnel campus, with more than 100 additional students over the past five years.”
She goes on to say “we’re also seeing many students choose to continue their studies locally, which reflects the important role accessible, community-based education plays in supporting learners.”
CNC offers programming in areas such as nursing, health care, trades, and early childhood education.
Heitman says CNC remains committed to working with their partners to ensure people across the region have access to education and training opportunities close to home.
The TRU Board voted to delay the decision to close the Williams Lake campus to allow for further consultation until June.
