Strategic Planning Responsibilities
The development of the college’s strategic plan has been led by the Board of Governors. The Board and the President developed an initial strategic framework in October 1999 and have continued to evolve the strategic direction of the college through facilitated strategic planning sessions. This Strategic Plan assimilates and presents a comprehensive view of the results of the strategic planning process.

By legislation, the Board of Governors is responsible for setting the overall strategic direction of the college, and the President is responsible for formulating the specific objectives.

Strategic Planning Methodology
The 2023-2026 Strategic Plan focuses on three priority areas, to be implemented over the next three years, consisting of: equity, diversity, and inclusion; teaching and learning approaches; and, sustainable development and growth. Our plan observes Government’s strategic directions and also incorporates the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals to demonstrate the College’s global commitment to environmental and social sustainability.

As a public institution, and given its proactive role in the social and economic development of the province, the college participates in the implementation of the province’s Strategic Social Plan at various levels. College representatives participate with the Strategic Social Plan authorities and bring relevant issues forward to the college’s strategic planning process.

The Policies contained on this web site have been approved by college executive and are enacted under the authority of section 15(1)(h) of the college Act, 1996, in conjunction with Board Policy BP-PO-001B.

Section 15(1)(h) of the Act grants to the Board of the college the authority to “make general policies to govern the organization, administration and operation of the college including personnel policies which, unless otherwise approved by the minister, shall adhere to the personnel administrative procedure of the province”.  Board Policy BP-PO-001B then authorizes the college President, in consultation with the Board, to “develop, authorize and implement regulations and procedures governing all aspects of the administration of the college”.
